Professionals have to fulfill requirements for continuing education in order to maintain licensing. ECG Academy can provide approved Category 1 CE/CME contact hours to nurses, nurse practitioners and physician assistants and even techs. Physicians may claim Category 2 CME credits. The ECG Academy offers a Modular, Self-Paced, Graded ECG Certificate Program!
By incorporating ECG Academy's unique video tutorials into an educational framework, we are able to track each participant's progress. The Sections in the Level 1 (Advanced Rhythm Strip Analysis) and Level 2 (12-lead Interpretation) courses 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. As of January 2022 ALL of the quizzes and exams have all been rewritten to provide even more feedback (more to learn!). Plus, there is a collection of "Essential ChalkTalks" at the end of each level, to help you practice analyzing unknown tracings. At the end of the each Level there is a final exam. Completion of the program qualifies the participant to receive a "Certificate of Completion," with nursing, NP, or PA CME/CEU contact hours. Physicians may claim Category 2 CMEs. The Certificate Courses can even open new doors for individuals who would like to start a career as a telemetry or ECG technician.
The ECG Academy video subscription service was originally offered as a "do-it-yourself" educational experience... those motivated to watch the video tutorials will gain tremendous insight and skill. But if you want credit for the time and effort you have put into becoming an ECG Expert, the Certificate Course can give you that. Plus, you can learn even more from the quizzes and exam questions and the tips and pearls you will learn from those answers. Once you've completed the Course, you can continue to watch the videos to maintain your understanding of the material or sharpen your skills at reading more difficult tracings.
