How do I get access for continuing education (CE) credit for my newsletter subscription(s)?
When you purchase access to the subscriptions during the checkout process you will automatically receive FREE online CE access for the newsletters that you subscribed to.   

How many hours of CE will I get for each newsletter test I do?
Each newsletter issue sent out is worth 0.25 hours (15 minutes) of CE. Our convenient online CE Center will keep track of which newsletter tests you have completed as well as the cumulative number of CEs you have accumulated up to that date. You can get your certificate at anytime online for total amount of CE completed as of that date. You can then continue taking CE but the number of hours completed will start back to zero. So it is up to you when and how many certificates you obtain from your account. 

Can I take the test for a particular newsletter at any time?
Yes, as long as your account is active or not expired. 

Can I take the test for a particular podcast without reading the newsletter?
Yes. It does not matter whether you actually read the newsletter or choose to listen to the podcast for that newsletter. You can take the CE for that newsletter provided that you have access to the online CE center and your subscriptions are active.

Can I do all of the available CE tests for credit all at once?
Yes, you may take available tests that have not been completed in any order you want and back to back. It is up to you. We have designed the online CE Center to allow you to decide what is convenient for you based on your needs. 

May I retake the test once it has been submitted online?
No. As a result of maintaining the integrity of the online CE process, you can only take the test for each newsletter once. You will be able to see which questions you got right and wrong at any time you log into your account.

How many questions do I have to get correct in order to pass that newsletter test?
It depends on the number of questions available for each newsletter. However, if there are 3 questions, you will need to get at least 2 of the 3 correct to pass. 

When I take a test for a newsletter, will I be able to see what I missed?
Yes. At any time you may log into your online account and view any previously taken exams as well as see which questions you got correct and incorrect.
