LPN / LVN requirement
15 CE is one of two competency options
Mandatory topics
Two of three approved continuing-competency requirements during the previous biennium
Required courses
RN/RPN: No fixed number of CE/contact hours is prescribed for ordinary annual renewal. Required QA activities include self-assessment, developing a learning plan, and completing learning activities related to identified learning needs. Selected nurses may also be required to complete the QA Assessment. (CNO)
Good to know
Ontario does not use a U.S.-style fixed CE-hour requirement for RN/RPN renewal. Instead, nurses must participate in CNO's Quality Assurance (QA) Program. Every year, nurses renewing registration must declare that they have engaged in the required QA activities. QA focuses on self-assessment, identifying learning needs, creating a learning plan, and completing learning activities. (CNO)
