Renewal: APRN licenses expire August 31 of odd-numbered years (the same date as the RN license).

Details

Reporting
Renewal via the Idaho DOPL Nurse Portal with evidence of current national certification and peer review; board may request documentation.

Resolved against the current official rule IDAPA 24.34.01 (eff. 3-28-23): older summaries citing 30 CE hours / 10 pharmacology hours do not appear in the current APRN renewal rule — the older figure is obsolete. Official board page: https://dopl.idaho.gov/bon/ APRN renewal requires a current Idaho RN license or compact privilege to practice in Idaho. There is no separate APRN CE-hour requirement: renewal is based on current national APRN certification from a Board-recognized organization plus participation in a peer-review process acceptable to the Board (IDAPA 24.34.01.100.11).
