New topics will be added to the program monthly. Planned topics include in-depth investigations into timely medical issues. Courses are planned in the fields of urology, OB-Gyn, cardiology, neurology and psychiatry. 

The Advancing Medicine CME program is offered only online, and can be completed on any device, anytime and anywhere you have internet access. The for-credit continuing education courses cost $25 and are timed to ensure certification requirements are met.

Many of the courses can be viewed for free, but a certificate of completion cannot be awarded. 

To watch courses for credit or for free, you need to register through our portal. Select either the For Credit or the free Not-for-Credit ticket option. Complete the registration form and follow the prompts. A confirmation email will be sent with a link and course code needed to your selected CME.

This is a new, innovative way of sharing advanced medical knowledge with providers across the country.
