Choosing the right course for physician assistants

Are learning and credit completion free?

This collection contains 13 current courses with no separate reporting fee identified. Every included course has $0 learning and assessment costs. The listing identifies a free certificate or verified direct credit reporting; a direct-reporting activity does not promise a downloadable certificate. A provider may also sell other courses; the whole external catalog is not assumed to be free.

Will these credits count for physician assistants?

Check the individual course’s credit designation, your credential’s renewal rules and your jurisdiction. A provider’s audience or approval by one organization does not imply approval by another. Credit counts here include only the recorded tracks for this profession. A listed accrediting body or provider does not establish acceptance by every state board. Review the course approval notes and your board’s rules.

Should I choose an upcoming session or an older recording?

1 scheduled session is coming up; 12 courses are currently on demand. Choose an upcoming session if its date and time zone suit you, or on-demand learning for flexibility. A recording’s age alone does not determine credit eligibility. Expired and withdrawn listings are kept in Past & unavailable.
