Special Requirement for New California RNs

This 30-hour CE package is intended for California RNs renewing for the second or subsequent time.

If this is your first California RN license renewal, you are generally exempt from the 30-hour CE requirement and may need the separate 1-hour implicit bias training required within the first two years of licensure for initial licenses issued after January 1, 2023.

Need implicit bias training? View the California 1-Hour Implicit Bias Training course.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this package meet all California RN CE requirements for license renewal?

This package provides all 30 required CE hours for California RN license renewal under California Code of Regulations, Title 16, Section 1450. Important: This package is intended for nurses renewing their California RN license for the second time or beyond. If this is your first renewal, you are exempt from the 30-hour CE requirement and only need the 1-hour Implicit Bias training. New RNs licensed after January 1, 2023 must also complete that 1-hour Implicit Bias course within their first two years — it is not included in this package.

When is my California RN renewal deadline and how do I know when to complete my CE

California RN licenses must be renewed by the last day of the month following your birth month, every two years. Unlike states with a fixed statewide renewal date, California uses individual birth-month deadlines — your specific deadline depends on your birth month. All 30 CE hours must be completed before your renewal deadline. Check your license on the BRN website (rn.ca.gov) to confirm your exact expiration date.

This package includes 16 pharmacology hours. Does it also satisfy ANCC pharmacotherapy requirements?

Yes. All 16 pharmacology hours are ANCC-accredited (Provider P0557) and count toward ANCC pharmacotherapy CE requirements. Nurse Practitioners and Clinical Nurse Specialists who need pharmacology hours for ANCC certification renewal can use this package to satisfy both their California BRN 30-hour CE requirement and a significant portion of their ANCC pharmacotherapy renewal hours simultaneously.

Do I need to submit my CE certificates to the California BRN when I renew?

No. You do not submit CE certificates at the time of renewal. By completing your online renewal application you are attesting that you have completed the required hours. The California BRN conducts random audits — if selected, you must provide certificates showing provider name, course title, completion date, and contact hours. Retain all certificates for at least four years from your renewal date. Renew Now CE stores your completion records in your account for access at any time, and certificates are available for instant download immediately upon completing each course.

Where can California RNs get all 30 required CE hours in one package?

Renew Now CE offers a Complete 30-Hour California RN CE Package ($49) approved by the California Board of Registered Nursing (BRN Provider CEP17292) and ANCC-accredited (Provider P0557). The package includes five courses totaling 30 hours — 16 of which are pharmacology hours. Trusted by over 9,400 California nurses. 100% online, self-paced, instant certificates. This package is for second-renewal and subsequent renewals only — first-time renewers are exempt from the 30-hour requirement.

What if I don't pass the post-test on my first attempt?

No problem — you have unlimited attempts on every post-test at no extra charge. Review the material and retake as many times as needed. Once you pass, your certificate downloads instantly.
