  • How to Renew Your NV License

    ​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.”

    Certificate Hours by Semester Credit

    Wondering how many hours are listed on your Certificate of Completion? Here's the breakdown:

    • 1 semester credit = 15 hours
    • 2 semester credits = 30 hours
    • 3 semester credits = 45 hours

    Important: Renewal requirements are subject to change. We recommend consulting the Nevada Department of Education’s website to ensure you have the most up-to-date information.
