West Virginia LPNs must complete 24 contact hours of CE and 400 clock hours of LPN practice in each two-year reporting period, with CE reported on even-year renewals; the 400-hour practice requirement also appears on the Board's own medical-exemption forms. The topic-hour breakdown (3 hours substance abuse and 2 hours veterans' mental health each period, plus a one-time 2-hour end-of-life care requirement) is uniformly reported by independent CE providers citing the Board's legislative rule on the official WV Secretary of State CSR site (DocId 25642); the rule PDF itself could not be fetched directly (site returned a rate-limit response).
