Renewing license CEs

[StudentRN56, BSN, RN]

I am renewing my license for the first time and I need 2hrs of CE in Cultural Competency. I took 2 classes that I thought would satisfy the requirement but when I went to print the certificate one specifically said not approved in Oregon ?

Sadly, I paid for it and didn't take it right away and believe that the certification expired. So frustrating! The other classes that are on the OSBN website - a lot of them are not actually found on the links - the organization is there, talks about training, but there is no actual training link. I literally clicked on every link. One is $97 on blindness and how it affects care - not to be picky, but I'm a school nurse and for $100 I'd like for it to at least somehow relate to my population. Anyway, it has been frustrating!

Can we use credits that are approved by the American Nurses Credentialing Center? It's parent organization is the American Nurses Association. Seems legit...

FYI - I just reread the section on the Oregon State Board of Nursing renewal page and it says - the class/training does not have to be approved by OHA... The approved ones are just a place for you to start looking for where you can find CEUs...
