A review module facilitates learning with interactive questions and detailed feedback. The subsequent assessment will evaluate proficiency and award CE credit, making this course ideal for individuals needing documentation of continuing education credits and also for facilities needing to document CLIA competency for their employees.

The competency assessment component carries CE credit, but the review component does not.
