Each course has been awarded a maximum of 12 Society of Diagnostic Medical Sonography CME credits on an hour-for-hour basis. These hours are accepted by ARDMS, CCI and the ARRT as Category A credit. Those attending both a physics and a specialty class earn up to a maximum of 24 hours of credit.
All ESP courses are also approved by the State of Florida, Office of Radiation Control for CME credits. Each course also meets the criteria for Type II CME credit for Texas registered nurses.
