Texas Temporary RN License- Refresher Course

Nurses General Nursing

Published

Hi guys, so I passed the NCLEX RN exam a week agooo weeee (insert applause here) :sarcastic: and now I have a new impediment. I am not sure if this topic is already in here but I graduated in the Philippines on the year 2009 and the Texas BON granted me to take my NCLEX RN but has told me that after I pass the exams, I will need to take the Refresher course. I wanna know from my fellow nurses how that works. I am in Dallas area. And I am not sure if after I get my RN temporary license valid for 6 months if I should look for an employer to give the TX BON what they need or just enroll in a course? And how many hours do I need to complete? Are there online courses I need to do as well?

Thanks if someone could answer. :)

Specializes in Oncology (OCN).

There is an online refresher course offered through Austin Community College. The required coursework is all done online over a 16-week time period. There are two skills classes required at the Austin campus on Saturdays about halfway through the semester and clinical hours are arranged by you (with the school's approval) at a local clinical site of your choosing. I'm sure there are other programs available but this is the program I am familiar with.
