The ECG Academy Level 1+2 Certificate Course is approved for 23 contact hours of continuing education by the American Association of Nurse Practitioners. Activity ID 22125905. This activity was planned in accordance with AANP Accreditation Standards and Policies.
By incorporating ECG Academy's unique video tutorials into an educational framework, we are now able to track each participant's progress. The Sections in the Level 1+2 (12-lead Interpretation) course each have 3-5 videos, each 5-15 minutes long, that cover a particular topic. At the end of each section there is a short quiz to reinforce the information and to measure your proficiency. There is a collection of "Essential ChalkTalks" at the end of each level, to help you practice analyzing unknown tracings. There is a mid-term exam at the end of Level 1 (rhythm strips) and a final exam at the end of Level 2. Completion of the entire program qualifies the participant to receive a "Certificate of Completion" that is approved by AANP for 23 CE contact hours.
As of 2023, NPs can now choose to only complete Level 1, and can earn 14 CE Contact Hours. This may be appropriate for NPs who only need to read complex rhythm strips on a telemetry unit. Those who complete Level 1 can upgrade to add the Level 2 course at a later date. We have even added additional topics as of 2023, including "Pediatric Considerations in ECGs" and "Diagnosing Acute MI in Patients with LBBB."
You'll also receive access to ECG Academy's weekly ChalkTalks, which are invaluable to help you tackle more difficult tracings.

"I find your course to be extremely helpful and should be offered at NP schools across the nation."

"Dr Nick, you are an ECG gangster!! I love the videos. You explain things so well. I love cardiac stuff already (I work in ER currently), but this course took me to another level of understanding. "
