FAQ

What are the continuing education requirements in Minnesota?
- LPNs are required to complete 12 contact hours of Continuing Education every 2 years.
- RNs are required to complete 24 contact hours of Continuing Education every 2 years.
- APRNs are required to complete 24 contact hours of Continuing Education every 2 years.
- APRNs who are certified by a national professional nursing or medical organization meet the requirements for RN renewal by holding an approved and current certification.
How do I complete a course?
Once you enroll you will have access to all courses. To complete a course you read and learn the course materials, then testify that you have done so by clicking a button. Once this is complete your certificate will be issued.
Can I renew now, and complete my CEUs later?
No. All Minnesota nurses must complete their CE requirements before they renew their license.
How can I renew my license? Can I mail in a paper renewal application?
According to the Minnesota Board of Nursing, a license renewal reminder postcard is mailed approximately 3 calendar months before the registration expiration date where you will have the option to request a paper application for renewal. Otherwise, you must renew online with the MBN Online Services application.
Is there a “grace period” to renew my license?
No. You must renew by midnight of your registration expiration date.
Are tests required?
No. The Minnesota Board of Nursing does not require that tests be taken in order to issue certificates. We do not feel that tests are an efficient use of nurses’ time. Therefore, we do not require tests. You simply need to read the material and certify you have learned the material with one click.
How do I access my certificates once a course is completed?
Your certificate will be instantly emailed to you once you complete a course. Additionally, it is available online for you to access at any time. We keep a record of your certificates for five years.
Do I have to keep documentation proving I completed my continuing education (CE) requirements for renewal?
Yes. All Minnesota nurses must save proof of CE completion for two years. The Board of Nursing randomly selects licensees for an audit of continuing education records. If audited, you must submit proof of having met the continuing education requirements to the board.
Are the courses timed?
No. Users may complete the courses at their own pace. Nursing CE Central does not monitor your time spent in courses.
How can I check that my renewal application is complete?
The Board discontinued issuing registration cards upon renewal, but you can verify your license by going to the Board’s website; click on the Verify a License button, log in and then click the Verification Services link and follow the instructions to search by license number or name.
What is your refund policy?
Nursing CE Central is happy to offer you a refund if the courses do not meet your state licensing requirements.
What happens if I don't renew my license before its current expiration date?
The Minnesota Board of Nursing places all nurses with expired licenses on an expired status. Nurses with an expired status will not be allowed to practice until their license is reregistered.
