Required Courses

2 hours in

Detailed Breakdown

Maryland APRN Standard Renewal Requirements: Maryland APRNs renew every two years by the 28th day of their birth month and must maintain current national certification, which is the only competency standard—no state-mandated continuing education hours are required for renewal. APRNs with prescriptive authority must complete a one-time 2-hour Board-approved CDS course, and all DEA-registered APRNs must complete a federal one-time 8-hour opioid/substance use disorder course. Full details and renewal steps are provided by the
Maryland Board of Nursing
.

---

First-time renewal: All Maryland APRNs must complete a Board-approved implicit bias training for their first renewal after April 1, 2022; otherwise, standard requirements (current national certification) apply.

---

Certification alternative: No alternative pathways—maintenance of national certification is mandatory for APRN renewal; CE hours are not required unless specified by the certifying body.

Other Certifications that nurses hold that needs to be renewed: Any additional advanced certifications (nurse practitioner, CRNA, CNS, CNM) must remain current and documented during renewal; they cannot be substituted for required national APRN specialty certification.
