Vermont Licensure Information and Requirements
For the most up-to-date information on licensure requirements and fees, visit the Vermont Board of Nursing website or contact them at (802) 828-2396.
Licensure Requirements
Vermont is now part of the Nurse Licensure Compact, so you won’t need to get a state-specific license to work as a travel nurse there if you already have a multistate license in another compact state.
If your primary license is in a non-compact state, you must apply for licensure by endorsement. To complete this process:
- Review nursing statutes and rules
- Create an account with the Vermont Office of Professional Regulation
- Complete the online application for an individual license
- Request verification of your credentials through Nursys®
- Complete a criminal background check
Applications are normally processed within three to five business days. The Office of Professional Regulation also has the authority to issue provisional 90-day licenses while application information is pending.
Licensure Fees
The application fee for licensure by endorsement is $150.
Nurse Licensure Compact Status
Vermont enacted the Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) on February 1st, 2022.
Is Vermont a Walk-Through State?
Vermont is not a walk-through state.
Vermont CEU Requirements
Continuing education hours are not currently required in Vermont. Nurses are expected to assume responsibility for maintaining and improving knowledge, skills, and abilities related to their practice.
They must also have actively practiced for 50 days (400 hours) in the last two years or 120 days (960 hours) in the last five years of their current licensing period.

How Do I Find Housing While Travel Nursing in Vermont?
Fortunately, finding housing while you’re on assignment as a travel nurse isn’t usually difficult.
You typically have two options:
- Take advantage of agency-based housing. Your travel nurse agency will arrange for your housing and cover the cost — that means you don’t have a choice in the actual location of where you’ll stay, but that’s one less thing on your plate before your move.
- Find your own housing and receive a housing stipend. It will be your job to find and secure housing. This could be a good option if you have family or friends in the area or if you know the location well yourself.
Even if you choose to find your own housing, you won’t be completely on your own. Your Trusted Nurse Staffing recruiter can be an invaluable resource.
Your recruiter may have additional insight based on past travel nurses’ experience in the area, and they can also connect you with other travel nurses looking for roommates if you’re up for saving some money and splitting housing costs.
How Long Are Vermont Travel Nursing Assignments?
The length of your Vermont travel nursing assignment can vary depending on:
- The contract lengths your chosen travel nursing agency offers (some will only offer certain contract lengths).
- The type of travel nursing assignment you apply for. Some travel nursing assignments can be much shorter due to the specialty or nature of the assignment.
At Trusted Nurse Staffing, we offer flexible contracts running 8,13,16, or 52 weeks.
If your assignment is a good fit and you’d like to call Vermont home for a bit longer, your Trusted Nurse Staffing recruiter can help you extend your contract.
