Registered Nurse/Licensed Practical Nurse
Refresher Course
Applicants for licensure by endorsement, renewal, or reinstatement who have not practiced as a nurse for 500 hours within the past 5 years or who have not graduated within the past 5 years must take a refresher course in order to meet the continued competence requirement for licensure. A Board approved refresher course (see below) must consist of a least 45 contact hours of theory and at least 30 contact hours of clinical. Nurses wishing to design their own course of study should contact:
