    In NJ it is 30 ceus too.

    Check your state board of nursing or licensing body for the information.

  4. Kendra Says:

    Thank you, I will look at the state board of nursing to find out how many in my state.

  5. Jean Roberson Says:

    In 2007, Illinois passed a law requiring 20 CE credits in our 2 year licensing period. However, it will not go into effet until the 2010-2012 biennium.
    (CEU is an inaccurate term which implies that the person was in class for 10 hrs.= 1CEU.
    Correct terms recognized by the American Nurses Credentialing Center include “CE Credits”, “CE activity”, or “contact hours”, but not CEU).
