ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Many state boards of nursing will accept continuing education contact hours earned through an approved provider of continuing education from another state board of nursing. This is generally referred to as “reciprocity.” Many states will accept CE contact hours from an approved provider by the Nursing State Boards of Florida and the District of Columbia as well as CE courses that are approved by the California Board of Registered Nursing.
For Nurses: If you have any questions regarding whether your particular State’s Board of Nursing will accept our contact hours for purposes of re-licensure, please contact your board of nursing and provide them with the appropriate information, that we are an approved provider of continuing education by the Boards of Nursing of Florida and the District of Columbia and that we are a Licensed Continuing Education Provider by the Board of Registered Nursing, State of California. Our Nursing Board Approval Provider numbers are provided above. It is each participant’s responsibility to know and ascertain the CE requirements for their state. Also, state board of nursing rules/regulations regarding what is accepted CE for re- licensure may change over time. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us:
