The New Mexico Board of Nursing requires all licensees and certificate holders to engage in continuing education to help assure the health and well-being of the citizens of New Mexico.  Engaging in continuing education also helps assure that licensees and certificate holders maintain current knowledge in their area of practice.

The New Mexico Board of Nursing partnered with CE Broker to help licensees and certificate holders manage the requirements of continuing education.  This also reduces the need for agency staff to conduct audits of continuing education. As of July 1, 2019, all licensees and certificate holders will be required to upload proof of continuing education to CE Broker before licenses/certificates will be renewed.

Below is more information about the New Mexico board of Nursing’s requirements for continuing education.
