FAQs About Pedagogy Education & Online Continuing Nurse Education
Choosing the right provider for continuing nurse education (CNE) and healthcare continuing education is an important decision. Nurses, EMTs, and healthcare professionals rely on education that is not only convenient—but also credible, accredited, and accepted for licensure renewal.
To help answer the most common questions we receive, we’ve compiled this blog based directly on our most frequently asked questions about Pedagogy Education and our online continuing education platform.

- Registered Nurses (RNs)

- EMTs & Paramedics
- Radiologic Technologists
- Medical Assistants and allied health professionals
Our mission is to provide accessible, affordable, and state-approved continuing nurse education that supports career growth and license compliance.
Are Pedagogy Education Courses Accepted for License Renewal?
Yes. Pedagogy Education is an accredited continuing education provider through multiple state Boards of Nursing and regulatory bodies. Our CNE contact hours are accepted for license renewal in most states.
Because continuing education requirements vary by state, we always recommend that learners verify renewal requirements with their specific licensing board. However, our courses are structured to meet the most common Board of Nursing CNE standards nationwide.
How Does Online Continuing Education Through Pedagogy Work?
Pedagogy makes online continuing education simple and flexible:
- Purchase your course and start immediately
- Complete the course at your own pace
- Chapter review quizzes help reinforce key concepts
- Pass the final exam with a score of 80% or higher
- Submit your required course evaluation
- Instantly download or print your CNE certificate
There are no mandatory live sessions, which allows professionals to complete their continuing education around demanding work schedules.
What Happens If I Fail an Exam?
If a learner does not pass the final exam with an 80% or higher:
- All missed questions can be reviewed
- The test can be reset and retaken
- There is no additional charge for test resets
- There is no limit on retakes
This ensures learners gain confidence in the material while still meeting their continuing nurse education requirements.
Are Course Materials Accessible After Completion?
Yes. One of the biggest benefits of online continuing education with Pedagogy is continued access to learning materials. Learners can return to their course content anytime for reference—even after earning their CNE certificate.
Are Pedagogy Education Courses Hands-On?
Pedagogy Education courses are 100% online and self-paced. We do not provide in-person clinical instruction. However, for select skills-based courses (such as IV therapy and vascular access), we do provide printable skills checklists.
These checklists are designed to be completed and validated at the facility level under the supervision of a licensed Registered Nurse (RN) preceptor. This allows learners to:
- Complete the didactic education online
- Perform hands-on skills in their clinical setting
- Receive competency validation through their employer or facility
- Maintain compliance with facility and Board of Nursing standards
This blended approach ensures flexibility while still supporting proper clinical competency verification.
What Technology Is Needed to Take Courses?
Pedagogy Education’s online platform is simple and user-friendly. All you need is:
- A computer, tablet, or smartphone
- Reliable internet access
- A modern web browser
No special software downloads are required.
How Long Do Courses Take to Complete?
Each continuing education course clearly lists:
- Total contact hours
- Estimated time for completion
- Learning objectives
- Exam requirements
Learners can pause and resume at any time, making it easy to fit CNE courses into busy clinical schedules.
