Who it is for

Nurses renewing a license

Nurses who need the hours

A renewal cycle asks for a number of hours by a date. This course is one of them, in a clinical subject rather than a filler one.

Nurses meeting a specific requirement

If your board asks for content in this subject, read the continuing-education statement below against your own board’s current language before you enroll.

Nurses who would rather not sit in a room

It is online and self-paced. Nothing to schedule, nothing to travel to, and you can stop and come back to it.

Continuing-education approval

The statement for this course

Approved provider

Provider approved by the California Board of Registered Nursing, Provider Number CEP 17185, for 1 contact hour.

No outside financial support.

That statement applies to this course. It is not a statement about the rest of the catalog, and it is not a promise about your particular board: requirements differ by state, license type and renewal cycle. Read it against your own board’s current language before you enroll, and if you are not sure, ask us first — we would rather answer the question than sell you the wrong hour.

How it works

Enroll, complete it, pass, print

  1. Step 1 Enroll
  2. Step 2 Complete it online
  3. Step 3 Pass the exam, complete the evaluation
  4. Step 4 Download the certificate

Add the course to your cart and check out. You create your account during checkout, and the license details that go on the certificate are captured there.

The course opens in your account straight away, with a short implicit-bias reading included. It is self-paced — stop and resume as often as you need to.

The exam follows the material and is taken online in the same place. 10 randomized questions, 80% or better, and you may retake it as often as you need within your access period.

Your certificate is issued on completion and stays in your account, so you can print it again at renewal.

Questions

Before you add it to the cart

Will this contact hour count toward my license renewal?

The continuing-education statement for this course is printed above, and it applies only to this course. Requirements differ by state, license type and renewal cycle, so read that statement against your own board’s current language before you enroll.

Where we do not hold written confirmation from a board, we print that on the page instead of implying acceptance. We do not print an acceptance claim we cannot stand behind.

How long does it take to finish?

The course is worth 1 contact hour and the recorded lecture runs 59.3 minutes. Add the exam on top of that.

It is self-paced and online: nothing to schedule, no live session to attend, and you can stop and come back to it.

How many attempts do I get at the exam?

As many as you need, within your access period. The exam is 10 randomized questions and you need 80% or better.

There is no re-test to buy — the terms are set out on the exam attempts policy. Work through the material before you open the exam all the same.

How do I get my certificate?

Complete the material, pass the exam, complete the short evaluation, and the certificate is available to download from your account. It stays there, so you can print it again at renewal without asking anyone for a copy.
