CEU Sponsorship

Sponsor CEUs for the Nurses, Social Workers and Case Managers You Call On

CEU sponsorship means your company pays for an accredited continuing education course and a licensed professional takes it free, with your name on it as the sponsor. On Pulse it costs $15 per CE credit hour, you are billed only when the professional opens the course, and your first one is free.

Licensed professionals need CE hours to renew, and most employers do not pay for them. Hospice, home health, senior care and rehab teams have filled that gap for years with take-home CEUs at lunch-and-learns and in-services. Pulse does the same job without order forms, coupon codes or sign-in sheets to reconcile.

How CEU sponsorship works on Pulse

  1. Pick a courseChoose from more than 50 accredited online courses and filter by the discipline of the people you are sending to. Almost all of them are one credit hour.
  2. Send it, or put it on a flyerEmail a course to one professional, bulk-send it to a sign-in sheet, or print a QR flyer for a whole room. The course arrives with your name and company on it.
  3. See who opened itYour dashboard shows each course you sent and whether it was opened, so you know when a follow-up call will land. Managers see the same for every rep on the team.
  4. Pay for what was usedYou get one invoice a month for the courses that were opened. A course that was sent and never opened costs nothing.

What you can sponsor

The catalog covers ethics, dementia and Alzheimer's care, palliative and hospice care, care transitions, stroke and brain injury rehabilitation, fall prevention and chronic disease management. Nearly every course is approved for nurses, social workers and case managers, and more than twenty are also approved for one or more therapy disciplines.

Frequently asked questions

What does it cost to sponsor a CEU?

$15 per CE credit hour, billed only when a professional opens the course. A one-hour course is $15 and a two-hour course is $30. Sending, QR flyers and bulk sends are free, there is no subscription or per-seat fee, and each rep's first opened course is free.

Does my presentation or lunch-and-learn earn CE credit?

No. Your presentation stays yours. The credit comes from the accredited online course you sponsor, which each professional completes on their own time and receives a certificate for. That keeps the education independent of the sponsor.

Which professionals can get credit?

Nursing courses are ANCC-accredited, which most state boards accept. Social work courses are approved through ASWB ACE (provider #2082), which most states accept; New York is the exception. Case managers can apply the courses to ACM and CCM renewal under the ACMA and CCMC reciprocity agreement. Some courses are also approved for physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech-language pathology through the Texas boards, which other state boards may accept by reciprocity. Each professional's licensing board has the final say.

Will our compliance team allow it?

That is their decision, so bring them in early. Pulse keeps a per-rep record of every course sponsored: who received it, when, and whether it was opened. The course is independent education from an accredited provider, and accepting one does not commit a professional to anything.

Who provides the courses?

H.I.S. Cornerstone Continuing Education, an ANCC-accredited provider and ASWB ACE provider (#2082) that has served healthcare professionals since 2007.
