Renewing in Nevada
The State of Nevada Board of Applied Behavior Analysis licenses behavior analysts in the state. Your license renews every 2 years, due on or before January 1 of odd-numbered years, with a possible 60-day extension if you ask by the prior December 1. Nevada doesn't set its own overall CE-hour total; it adopts the BACB's own CE requirements as the baseline. On top of that, you need at least 6 hours of cultural competency and DEI training, plus at least 2 hours of suicide prevention training, before each renewal.

July 2026 Changes Affecting Nevada BCBAs
Format Change: Participation Monitoring for Asynchronous CE
Starting July 1, 2026, asynchronous (self-paced) CE includes participation monitoring — at least 3 knowledge-check questions per CEU, the handbook's example measure, or other active responding. This is not a video- or interactive-only mandate: live webinars, video, journal clubs, and podcasts all remain valid CE when they include the required knowledge checks. CEUs already in your record are unaffected.
Is your CE provider ready? For on-demand CE, the BACB's listed measure is knowledge questions on the event, at least 3 per CEU. Our BACB CE courses use it, and you need 80% to earn your certificate.
