Nevada nursing CE requirements
For registered nurse license renewal, read off Nevada State Board of Nursing Continuing Education rather than an aggregator. Checked 2026-10-15.
30 hours
per renewal, every 2 years
Mandatory topics, inside the Nevada total
Cultural Competency
4 hours · every renewal
Must address diverse populations including gender, racial, ethnic and religious backgrounds.
Required, but not every cycle
Bioterrorism
4 hours · one-time
HIV Stigma and Bias
2 hours · one-time
RNs who provide or supervise emergency medical services in a hospital or primary care setting
Within 2 years after beginning to provide such care. SB 439.
Do BLS and ACLS cards count?
The board does not say
One contact hour is
50 minutes
Cultural competency is 4 hours EVERY cycle, not 2. RNs in their first biennium after graduation are exempt from the 30 but must still complete bioterrorism and cultural competency.
Read from that page on 2026-10-15. Boards change their rules and their websites without announcing either, so treat this as a convenience and the board as the authority.

Tell us the date on your licence and we will email you 60 days before it lapses. Once, per cycle. No account, no password, nothing else sent to you.
Hold a licence in more than one state?
The compliance map takes the CE you have already done and shows you where it would hold up across all 51 jurisdictions at once, including the ones that do not work the way anybody assumes. Three questions, no account. Both tools are available in English, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese.
