Not entirely. Nevada requires at least 20 live or interactive hours per cycle; the remaining hours may generally be completed through approved home-study / online courses. Home-study note: No more than 20 of the 40 hours may be non-interactive distance education; equivalently at least 20 hours (one-half) must be a live seminar or webinar allowing interaction with presenter/participants (NAC 641A.131(4))..

First-period hours are prorated by months licensed (30/20/10 hrs) and the Board may waive/prorate on request. Discrepancy noted: official board CE page (marriage.nv.gov) requires 6 hrs cultural competency/DEI while codified NAC 641A.131 text on legal mirrors states 4 hrs; board page treated as authoritative. Category caps: teaching 20 hrs, graduate courses 15 hrs, board-meeting attendance 4 hrs, community meetings 6 hrs.
