"How many contact hours do I need to re-certify?
-
The number of contact hours required for recertification varies by certifying body. Please check with your certifying body for specifics. At this time, the AANP Certification Program requires 75 contact hours in your specialty. While the AANP Certification Program is an AANP affiliate organization, it is separately incorporated. More information about AANP Certification is listed HERE.
Do you know of any programs in my specialty/area/on these dates?
-
Please check for relevant programs in the AANP CE Center, as well as the complimentary CE Calendar and Independent Studies pages. These are all accredited by the AANP. You can also contact any of AANP Approved Providers to see if they have a program right for you.
How do I know if a program is accredited and whether you will accept it?
- Program Sponsors should state on their brochures how they are accredited. You can also contact them directly. Regarding whether or not a program is “accepted”, you will need to contact your certification program to determine the type of credit accepted. Please NOTE: AANP accredited programs are universally accepted by all NP certifying bodies and all state boards.
Can I get credit for a conference I attended?
- AANP will not accredit a program retroactively. See if the CE they offered is suitable for your needs by contacting your state board or certifying organization. (AANP Certification – certification@aanp.org )
How do I get my CE Certificate for a previous conference or other program? I’ve lost my certificate how do I get it replaced?
- Contact the Sponsor of the program to receive/replace your certificate of completion. You can access records of activities completed through the AANP CE Center and AANP Conferences under My Portfolio on the CE Center home page. Requests specific to any AANP Conference should be referred to Conference@aanp.org.
How many contact hours do I have (do you keep track)?
-
AANP currently tracks only those contact hours you complete thru our website (see CE Center - My Portfolio) and AANP Conferences. Use the My Portfolio link in the AANP CE Center to trackAANP CE. AANP members may upload any non-AANP CE and keep all these records in one place.
