Why Corexcel for CEU Accreditation?
Are you planning an educational activity, conference or training program where your participants would see added value if they could earn CEU credit? Corexcel will help you cut through the red tape of the CEU accreditation process so you can offer continuing education credit. Since 1984, Corexcel has been building a network of expert writers, facilitators and instructional designers to deliver high quality continuing education programs. We specialize in nurse continuing education credits (CEU) and understand the differences in continuing education development requirements for nurses, physicians, social workers and many others. We will partner with you to help you offer continuing education CEUs for your programs.

Planning for CEU Programs
In order to offer continuing education credit for a program, we must be involved with the planning process. Corexcel's CEU accreditation team will help you:
- Define appropriate and measurable learning objectives
- Develop course content that is appropriate for your audience
- Select speakers who are experts in the stated topic
- Create and maintain all of the necessary documentation for CEU programs
Documentation for CEU Accredited Programs
Accreditation criteria are to ensure continuing education programs are developed using sound educational design elements. In order to offer CEU credit to program attendees, these design elements must be documented. We have developed a process to make the process as simple as possible. The documentation for CEU accreditation includes:
- Learning objectives and high-level outlines
- Biographical Data Form, CV or resume for presenters, moderators and planning committee members
- Conflict of Interest Disclosure Forms
- CEU Partnership Agreement
Additional Accreditation Elements
In addition to ensuring educational planning elements are utilizes and the proper CEU documentation is in place, Corexcel will:
- Create a program evaluation and provide a copy of the summary report
- Generate and distribute CEU certificates
- Keep participant records and administer the student database for 7 years
- Provide duplicate CEU certificates for participants who misplace them within the 7 year time frame
Joint Educational Programs
Corexcel partners with non-profit organizations, associations and medical education companies to plan, deliver and implement continuing education programs. Each accrediting body has its own standards that define the nature of the partnership and the responsibilities of each party. Whether your audience is physicians, pharmacists, nurses, social workers or another allied health group, we will work with you to ensure that the continuing education meets the requirements of each accrediting body and the learners' needs.
