Good to know
The current NMI Board requires licensees to maintain CE documentation for 3 years. The Board's current CE form states that the nurse must have completed 30 hours or more of CE during the last license period. NMI also now specifically requires Substance Use Disorder (SUD) CE for all licensees. (NMI Board of Nursing)
