Texas License Renewal Question


How does the BNE know if you have met or not met the minumum 20 hour CE requirement?
After earning CE credits how do you apply them towards your hours earned?

The Texas BON does not know if you have the CEU's or not. However, the expect you to and randomly audit nurses every year.

The Texas BNE does not really know if you've completed your CEUs. However, expect to get into big trouble if they audit you and discover that you have not done them. They randomly audit nurses every year to ensure compliance with this requirement.

I wanted a more sound answer than I read from the BNE website. I honestly thought there would be somewhere to log your hours... Either way, I'll just keep them logged myself at home in case I am faced with an audit.

Thanks for the replies.
