There is no state in the US that is called that, so not sure where you are referring to.

The continuing education hours can be obtained on the computer and can be done on-line. The programs that are offered in the Philippines will not meet the required hours for meeting this requirement.

There are various companies that offer them, even some of the nursing magazines have websites and offer the CEs.

Can you be specific of who you tested for in the first place?

Thanks for clarifying that for me, we just refer to it as the Northern Marianas here.

The same information holds true that I posted above, classes done out of the US unless that have approval from a specific BON to give credit are not accepted as continuing ed credits for the US.
