Nebraska Electrician Requirements:

All State electrical licenses expire December 31 of each even numbered year. Twelve hours of continuing education, with a minimum of six hours on the National Electrical Code, are required to renew any electrical license issued. These hours must be obtained within the two-year licensing period. All expired licenses held after March 31 of each odd numbered year cannot be renewed.

You can check your Nebraska Continuing Education Hours at this link: State Reporting Login

IOWA ELECTRICAL LICENSE REQUIREMENTS:

Your licenses expire December 31, 2028. Iowa-licensed electricians are required to participate in continuing education to maintain their electrical licenses. These courses help electrical professionals gain and maintain the essential skills that are necessary to be successful in today’s competitive electrical industry. Within each three year license-cycle, licensed electricians are required to attend no fewer than 18 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) of which at least 6 CEUs must be on the most recent electrical code and the remainder on electrical code-related topics. If you have not had your license for the full 3-year term, you will need 6 CEUs for each year of the license-cycle in which you held a license, with at least 6 hours over the National Electrical Code.
