Required categories

15 hours in pharmacology and clinical management of drug therapy in the 2 years before expiration, for prescriptive-authority holders (conditional)
15h
Current national certification in the role/population focus (satisfies APRN competency)
0h
Grandfathered APRNs recognized before July 1, 2005, continuously licensed and not nationally certified: 60 contact hours in the role/population focus plus 400 APRN practice hours in the prior 2 years (conditional)
60h

No grace period to practice: the license lapses January 1 and practice may not resume until relicensure is issued. The current adopted rule does not contain the 2026 proposal's 'APRN competency replaces duplicate RN competency' language, and the June 2026 notice-of-intent proposals (a pre-1999 40-hour grandfather path and universal 3-hour controlled-substance/substance-use CE) are not adopted — they must not be treated as effective.
