​To renew a teaching license in Nevada, educators should follow these steps:​

1. Complete Continuing Education Requirements:

• For licenses issued on or after September 16, 2024, educators must complete 90 clock hours of continuing education, 6 semester credits, or a combination of both during the licensure period.
• For licenses issued before September 16, 2024, educators are required to complete 15 hours per year of the licensure period, totaling 75 hours for a five-year license.

Happy Teacher can help Nevada educators meet these requirements.

• Graduate credits must be completed at a regionally accredited college or university. All of our university partners, including Upper Iowa University and Adams State University, are HLC-accredited.
• You may fulfill your state requirement by completing two three-semester-credit courses.

When registering, be sure to select “Course + Graduate Level Credit.”
