| Requirement | Hours | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Maintain RN License or Privilege | — | South Dakota advanced-practice renewal rules require the nurse to hold an unencumbered South Dakota RN license or privilege to practice. For nurse practitioners and nurse midwives, the APRN expiration follows the RN renewal period or the second birthday after issuance when practicing on another compact-state RN privilege. |
| Current National Certification | — | South Dakota nurse practitioner and nurse midwife renewal requires evidence of current certification unless a legacy exemption applies. Clinical nurse specialist renewal must show evidence of a current certificate from a national certifying body unless specifically exempted. |
| RN Active Status Practice Attestation | — | Underlying South Dakota RN active-status rules require at least 140 nursing employment hours in any 12-month period over the preceding six years; otherwise, reentry can be met through at least 480 nursing employment hours in the preceding six years or a Board-approved refresher course. |
Looking up the rule is step one. Continuing Education Tracking App stores certificates, allocates category hours, and exports proof when you renew.
