Nursing CE Requirements, Accreditations & Approvals

Back to Accreditations & Approvals

In support of improving patient care, NetCE is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.

The American Academy of Nurse Practitioners Certification Board (AANPCB) is a national nursing certification board. Most nurse practitioners are certified through the AANPCB and may complete NetCE courses as we are an ANCC-accredited provider and also authorized to award AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™.

The American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) is a continuing education accrediting body. Nurse practitioners may be members of the AANP, but are not required to complete continuing education to maintain membership. NetCE will not seek approval through AANP as most nurse practitioners are certified through the AANPCB.

Please see individual courses for the appropriate AACN Synergy CERP category.

Appropriate NetCE courses fulfill the requirements for recertification for Certified Nurses in the Operating Room (CNOR) set forth by the Association of Operating Room Nurses (AORN).
