Pennsylvania Nurse Practitioner (APRN) CE audits & penalties

What happens if a certified registered nurse practitioner (crnp) misses CE requirements in Pennsylvania, and how the board checks compliance — sourced from the official board.

Pennsylvania CRNP certification renews biennially ($81) with the RN license; prescriptive authority approval renews separately ($41). Expired or inactive licenses must be reactivated online through the PALS system -- the Board's reactivation page states reactivation applications are only available online via a PALS account (https://www.pa.gov/agencies/dos/department-and-offices/bpoa/boards-commissions/nursing/application-information); the Board's published CRNP materials do not list a CRNP-specific late or reactivation fee.Verify with board

How compliance is checked

No audit process appears in the available data. Keep your certificates regardless — boards can request proof of completion at renewal or during an investigation.
