Are
continuing education units/hours required for LPNs? |
|
|
|
|
There are no continuing
education units/hours required for LPN licensure. However, some
employers may require a minimum amount of continuing education. |

|
(For continuing education
providers) How do I get approval? |
|
|
|
|
Because continuing
education is not required for LPNs, you do not need to contact our
office for approval.
However, if you would
like information on getting approval for an educational offering, you
can contact the Louisiana State Nurses Association (LSNA), accredited as
a provider and approver of continuing education in nursing by the
American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) Commission on Accreditation
(COA).

The Louisiana State
Board of Practical Nurse Examiners occasionally hosts/co-hosts educational
offerings in the form of workshops and seminars.
Throughout 2004 and
2005, we offered a Geriatric Workshop which traveled throughout the
state.
Future offerings will be
posted on our website. Flyers are mailed out to all LPNs with
active licenses as the workshop/seminar approaches their
area. |
