How CERTIFICATE COURSES work
Nurses: Earn up to 30 CE Contact Hours
Advance Your Career By Looking At ECGs In A Whole New Light!
Professionals have to fulfill requirements for continuing education in order to maintain licensing. ECG Academy can provide approved CE contact hours to Registered Nurses. ECG Academy is an approved CE provider accredited by the California Board of Registered Nursing. Please check with your individual state licensing board to make sure that they accept courses approved by CBRN.
Most nurses who work on cardiac telemetry units are exposed to monitoring and rhythm strips. Critical care patients are continuously monitored and their rhythm can change at a moment's notice. Unfortunately, cardiac arrhythmia training is lacking in most nursing schools, and hospital inservice programs barely scratch the surface of deciphering the arrhythmias seen every day on these units. Now you can become a resource at your hospital and not rely on telemetry techs or your intuition. ECG Academy provides you with the tools to correctly identify the arrhythmia even when most others get it wrong. You can earn CE contact hours and become an ECG Expert on your unit with the Certificate Courses at ECG Academy! Impress the cardiologists with your understanding of arrhythmias, and advance your career by learning this valuable and marketable skill.
How Do The Certificate Courses Work?
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 (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. After you watch the videos, there are "Practice Questions" to ensure your understanding of the material. At the end of each section there is a short quiz to reinforce the information and to measure your proficiency. There is also a collection of "Essential ChalkTalks" in 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." that is worth up to 30 CE Contact Hours for RNs. You'll also receive access to ECG Academy's weekly ChalkTalks, which are invaluable to help you tackle more difficult tracings.

Please note: It generally takes up to 24 hours to get you enrolled after you purchase the course.
What Are Nurses Saying About ECG Academy...
"I do see that you use a different approach, and in all my almost 9 years in critical care, this is the most comprehensive course I have ever taken. It is truly making me think what is going on with the heart and how the current is flowing. :) I wish I had your course earlier."
