Biennial — a fixed date: licenses expire Feb 28 of even-numbered years (not birthday-based). Fee plus a workforce survey.

Source: Wisconsin Board of Nursing (DSPS) · confirmed 2026-06. Requirements change — always verify with the board.

First renewal & exemptions

N/A — there's no CE program for RNs.

If your license lapses

A late fee applies after the deadline; practicing on a lapsed credential is prohibited until renewed.

How CE is tracked

Renew online via Wisconsin DSPS (LicensE); pay the fee and complete the workforce survey. No CE attestation.

Watch out: Wisconsin RNs need NO CE — don't confuse the advanced-practice prescriber 16-hour rule with RN requirements, and note renewal is a fixed Feb-28 date, not your birthday.
