| Florida Board of Nursing Contact Hour Requirement |
| *College credits count toward contact hours as long as it is a nursing related class-for every 1 credit you take in college, you receive 15 contact hours. *Address of the Board of Nursing: Florida Board of Nursing 4052 Bald Cypress Way, BIN C02 Tallahassee, Florida 32399 Telephone: 850-245-4125 Fax: 850-245-4172 www.myflorida.com (“search” Board of Nursing) *Florida Department of Health website for licensure information: www.doh.state.fl.us/mqa *All licensees are subject to automatic audit under CE Broker. |
| While subscription to CE Broker (www.cebroker.com) is optional for licensees, the system has been developed with your needs in mind. You can check the status of your CE requirements at anytime, 24/7. You will also have the ability to self-submit acceptable courses obtained through providers not currently on the CE Broker system. |
| All Florida-licensed RN's and LPNs are now in a 24-month renewal cycle and must complete 24 hours of appropriate continuing education during each renewal period. One (1) contact hour is required for each calendar month of the licensure cycle, including two (2) hours on Prevention of Medical Errors. HIV/AIDS is now a one-time, 1-hour CE requirement to be completed prior to the first renewal. Domestic Violence CE is now a 2-hour requirement every third renewal. For example, if you renew your license on January 31, 2007, you are required to complete the Domestic Violence CE before the January 31, 2013 renewal. |
