| Notes | Re-read 2026-10-09. Source: mandatory 30 hours already required by law (NRS 632.343); the renewal period goes back two years from when the renewal is submitted; refers to biennial period. renewal_fee_usd and renewal_deadline_rule not found: the board fee schedule PDF and RN/LPN renewal FAQ PDF came back unreadable, and the continuing education page states neither. CE period 24 months, official phrases: “The 4 hours of continuing education is part of the mandatory 30 hours already required by law (NRS 632.343).” and “The renewal period goes back two years from when the renewal is submitted.” (https://nevadanursingboard.org/continuing-education/). |
