How to Report CE to CE Broker: A Nurse's Guide
CE Broker may receive course completions directly from education providers, but nurses sometimes need to report their own continuing education. Knowing who reports each course and checking your transcript can help you catch missing or incorrect records before renewal.

Quick answer
To report CE to CE Broker, sign in to your account, choose the option to report continuing education, select the appropriate course type, enter the completion information, and upload supporting documentation if requested. Because requirements and reporting arrangements vary, confirm the process with your nursing board and follow its renewal instructions.
How does CE Broker reporting work?
CE Broker is an electronic continuing education tracking system used by some licensing boards. It collects course completion information and organizes it in a transcript that may be reviewed when a nurse renews a license.
Not every nursing board uses CE Broker, and requirements differ among jurisdictions and license types. Check your board's website to confirm whether CE Broker is used, which activities qualify, and what documentation you must retain.
CE Broker's transcript tools can help you compare completed education with your requirements. However, your nursing board remains the authority on what is accepted, so follow board instructions and your facility's applicable protocols.
Who reports continuing education to CE Broker?
An approved education provider may report a completed course directly to CE Broker when it has the information required by the applicable board. Provider reporting is not universal, so do not assume every course will appear automatically.
If the provider does not report the course, you may need to enter it yourself. The nurse is ultimately responsible for verifying that the transcript is accurate and that renewal requirements have been met.
Before self-reporting, review the provider's reporting policy and allow any stated processing time. Reporting the same activity twice can create duplicate entries that may need to be corrected.

How to report CE to CE Broker yourself
Sign in to your CE Broker account and locate the option for reporting continuing education. Select your profession and license if prompted, choose the category that best matches the activity, and enter details such as the provider, course title, completion date, and number of contact hours exactly as shown in your records.
Upload the completion certificate or other supporting documentation if the system requests it. Review every field before submitting, especially the date, course category, provider information, and contact hours.
After submission, check the activity's status and save any confirmation available in your account. Menu names and documentation requirements can change, so use CE Broker's current instructions and contact your nursing board if you are unsure which category applies.
How do you check your CE Broker transcript?
Open your CE Broker account and view your continuing education transcript or compliance status. Confirm that each completed course appears under the correct license, reporting period, and requirement category.
Compare the transcript with your own certificates and course history. Look for missing activities, duplicate entries, incorrect completion dates, inaccurate contact hours, or courses assigned to the wrong category.
A course appearing in the account does not necessarily guarantee that the board will accept it. Verify your board's provider, subject, timing, and documentation rules, particularly for mandatory topics.
What should you do if a course is missing or incorrect?
First, determine whether the provider was expected to report the course and whether its processing window has passed. Confirm that the provider has your correct name, license number, profession, and jurisdiction, because inaccurate information can prevent a record from matching your account.
If provider reporting was expected, contact the provider with your course details and completion record. If you are responsible for reporting, use CE Broker's self-reporting process and upload the requested documentation.
For an incorrect or duplicate entry, follow the correction options in your account or contact CE Broker support. Questions about whether an activity counts toward renewal should be directed to your nursing board.
How can nurses make CE reporting easier before renewal?
Complete continuing education early enough to allow time for reporting and corrections. Keep copies of completion records for the period required by your board, even when a provider submits the information electronically.
This site's self-paced online courses include instant certificates. Our All-Access pass costs $29.99 per year, renews yearly unless canceled before renewal, and includes every course on the site. Nurses can also take Improving Interprofessional Communication and Collaboration as one free course.
Before choosing any course, confirm that it fits your board's current requirements and can be documented in the required format. Regular transcript checks are more reliable than waiting until the renewal deadline to identify missing records.
