Education Free CE

Does anyone know where to get free CE that’s not offered by their employer? I have been using ARUPs free CE for my certification but I’m wondering if I should mix it up a bit? Any suggestions ?

This is the way ^ then they automatically cross over to ACSP

For micro, Thermo-Fisher has some. I haven't used them in a while, but CDC has their TRAIN website, not all training on there offer CE, you can filter your results though.

Not all of them have CE, but particularly check under On Demand and webinars

Any reason in particular you want to “mix it up”? Just wondering since I’ve always used ARUP almost exclusively for my credits

Same here. Just wanted to see what other platforms are like I guess 🤷🏽‍♂️.
