What is continuing education?

Continuing education is additional relevant training designed to keep current a person's knowledge and skills. DSHS must approve continuing education curricula and instructors. The same continuing education course may not be repeated for credit unless it is a new or more advanced training on the same topic, or there is a demonstrated or documented need for retraining. Exceptions to this are first aid, CPR, and blood borne pathogens. Nurse delegation core and nurse delegation specialized diabetes training may be used to count towards continuing education.
