Details
This page is our summary of Nevada's rules. Text in quotation marks is the exact wording of NAC chapter 637B.
The hours are in NAC 637B.400(1). Before each renewal, you need "at least 10 hours of continuing education approved by the Board," finished "during the annual period immediately preceding the renewal." ASHA counts 0.1 CEU as 1 hour, so 1.0 ASHA CEU covers all 10 hours.
One hour has a set topic. At least 1 of the 10 hours has to relate to "ethics, cultural competence, cultural humility, culturally responsive practices or diversity, equity and inclusion."
Licenses run 1 year. NAC 637B.036(1) says each license "expires 1 year after the date on which the license was issued." So your due date is your own, not one date for the whole state. The board won't approve a renewal sent more than 30 days after your license expired (637B.036(2)).
ASHA courses count. NAC 637B.400(5) says a course approved by ASHA, AAA or one of the other groups it names "is deemed to be approved by the Board."
Online courses count. NAC 637B.420(1)(f) lists "Completion of an Internet course." Workshops and seminars count too.
Extra hours don't carry over. If you finish more than 10 in one licensing period, the extra hours can't count toward a later one (637B.400(4)).
Keep your proof for 3 years. Keep receipts, attendance records and certificates for at least 3 years after each course. The board runs random audits (637B.400(2) and (3)).
Short on hours? You can ask the board in writing for a waiver if an extenuating circumstance kept you from finishing. If it grants one, the missing hours are added to the next year (637B.430). The board's CE page also describes a request for an extension of up to 30 days to finish CE for extenuating circumstances.
New grad? If you got your license within 12 months after graduating from an accredited program, you don't need CE before your first renewal (637B.403(2)).
We read NAC chapter 637B and NRS chapter 637B on the Nevada Legislature site, and the board's continuing education page on nvspeechhearing.org, on Nov 4, 2026.
Nevada treats a course approved by ASHA as approved by the board. Every course below was listed for ASHA CEUs when we checked it and has an ethics topic. Topic matches the ethics hour, but you decide whether a course fits it, within the rules above.

ASHA counts hours and CEUs. 1 hour is 0.1 CEU, so ASHA’s 30 hours is 3.0 CEUs. Nevada’s rules above are in hours. Those are the ones that apply to your license.

When are Nevada SLP CE hours due?
Before each yearly renewal. Your license expires 1 year after it was issued, per NAC 637B.036, and the 10 hours have to come from the year before you renew.
Is ethics required in Nevada?
One of your 10 hours has to relate to ethics or one of the cultural topics the rule lists, per NAC 637B.400(1). An ethics course is one way to cover it.
Do ASHA courses count in Nevada?
Yes. NAC 637B.400(5) says a course approved by ASHA is deemed to be approved by the board.
Can extra hours carry over?
No. NAC 637B.400(4) says extra hours can't count toward a later period.
Do I need CE for my first renewal?
Not if you got your license within 12 months after graduating from an accredited program, per NAC 637B.403(2).
