Outcomes to the Educational On-Demand Activity

After completing the education, the learner will: 

i. Indicate that the learning objectives for individual educational sessions were achieved.

Requirements for successful completion

To obtain CE credit for any NPACE On-Demand activity, participants must purchase individual sessions or bundles. Purchased sessions or bundles will go into your “My courses/ certificate” section of your learn.npae.org account. Click on “contents” and proceed down the list of actions, beginning with the pretest. Learners are expected to attend 100% of each learning activity and complete post-test and evaluations to obtain the CE certificate. Once all components are completed within each session your certificate for each course will be loaded into your transcripts on your account. NPACE routinely conducts audits of registrations and certificates of completion to ensure compliance. NPACE cannot provide CE credit for any activity when the above requirements for successful completion are not met.

Alternately, on the Homepage left side navigation bar you may search the site by “Category” (medical specialty), “Type” (type of content such as CE courses or webinars), or using “keywords” such as a speaker name.

Lastly, visit the Connect and Collect section for additional tips and information about the NPACE Learning Center.

2. Can I create my own bundle of courses?

Yes, the Build Your Own Bundle feature gives discounts for purchasing multiple paid courses in one order. Browse On-Demand CE options to see what courses are available. As you add these courses to your cart, you will see these discounts automatically applied. The more courses you add, the bigger the discount — 10+ courses are 10% off; 15+ courses are 15% off; 20+ courses are 20% off. Note that free content will not count towards this discount offer.

3. Where is the course(s) I purchased?

All the courses you have registered/purchased are listed within your My Coures/Certificates located on the top left-hand menu. You must be logged in for this menu option to be visible.

4. Do I have to complete a course in one sitting?

No, the system will track your progress within a course, and you can pick up where you left off. You will have 90 days from the date of purchase to complete your course and earn credits.

5. Can I download a course presentation?

No, course presentations can only be viewed within the NPACE Learning Center. All courses are mobile-friendly and will work on any device.

6.  Do I need any special software to take courses?

No, you only need to be connected to the Internet or Wifi. The courses will launch in any browser except Internet Explorer, although we recommend you use the most up-to-date version of the browser.

7. One of the course components will not launch correctly; what do I do?

If a course component does not open or does not "play" correctly, we recommend the following steps to troubleshoot:

• Note that some course components will open in a new browser window/tab, and you may have to disable your pop-up blocker to allow pop-ups temporarily.
• Clear your web browser cache and restart the browser. 
• If that does not help, try launching the course in a different web browser (i.e. try Chrome instead of Firefox. The NPACE Learning Center content is not compatible with Internet Explorer). 
• Try viewing the course on a different device, such as a laptop if you are having trouble on a mobile device or vice versa. 
• If you are still having issues, please contact learn@npace.org for troubleshooting, with as much detail as possible regarding your issue (be sure to include the name of the course).

Pricing and Policies

How do I take advantage of special pricing for courses?

NPACE offers discount pricing on collections of courses called "Bundles," which may be purchased pre-selected, or NPACE has an option to create your own.  

From the Homepage, hover over the On-Demand CE/CME box and select the Bundles button or navigate to the Quick Links menu and choose Bundles from the drop-down under the CE/CME Courses link.

Can I get a refund for an NPACE Learning Center purchase?

Refunds are only issued when unresolved technical difficulties prevent a viewer from completing a course. NPACE will attempt to correct the problem before issuing a refund. Please contact learn@npace.org if you encounter difficulties. 

How long will I have access to my course(s)?

Once purchased, users have 90 days after the date of purchase to earn credits. You will receive reminder emails 15 days before the course expires. You will still retain access to purchased course(s), handouts, and video access for 90 days from the date of purchase, except on specially noted purchases with 12-month access—look for this designation prior to purchase in the course overview.
