About the Electronic Newsletters
Q: Do I have to complete a course in one sitting? top
A: No. Once activities are released on the Internet, they will be available for credit on our Web site for one year. Participants may visit the site, and each activity, as often as they wish prior to, during, or after completing their post-test.
In addition, each activity will broadcast at least four times via satellite, so there will be additional opportunities to view the program over the satellite as well. For a complete schedule of broadcasts, please visit our 2007-2008 program calendar listing.

Q: What will I receive to document the credit I have earned? top

Q: When I click on a link to take a Web Course or download CE materials, the item fails to load. What's the problem? top
