Can I get credit for a course even if it is not registered for con-ed?
A. Many nationally recognized courses such as BTLS and ACLS as well as many courses conducted through the PA Fire Academy are already rated for con-ed. Anybody successfully completing the course is eligible to receive continuing education credits through a process called endorsement. This is a relatively simple process. If a course is not already rated for con-ed, such as nursing courses, certified athletic trainer courses, and some seminar or college-level courses, the course can still be approved for continuing education. In this case, the process is a little more difficult and takes longer for approval at the PA Department of Health. You will be responsible for submitting a course description or syllabus, and other supporting documentation as well as evidence of successful completion.
