What do you need for the NBCRNA CPC Program?
The CPC Program is designed to support lifelong learning for CRNAs.
By keeping up with current practice trends and refreshing the basics, you’ll be empowered to provide the highest quality care for your patients.

Have questions?
We have you covered.
Is APEX Anesthesia CRNA-owned and operated?
Yes! APEX is owned and operated by CRNAs who care about other CRNAs.
We’ve helped thousands of CRNAs with continuing education. We can help you too.
Will APEX report my credits to the AANA?
We report credits for active AANA members on normal business days Monday – Friday.
If you’re not an AANA member, you can print your credit transcript to submit to the NBCRNA.
Can I complete the same CE course more than once?
Yes! You can repeat any course whenever we receive a new AANA approval number for that course.
- We receive new AANA approval numbers for our courses every several years.
- So long as you complete the course under a different AANA number, you can complete the course again for Class A credits.
Can I renew or extend access to a CRNA course?
We understand that sometimes life gets in the way. If you need extra time to earn your credits, contact us, and we’ll gladly extend your course access.
If you’d like to enroll in a course that you used previously (to earn credits again), email us at info@apexanesthesia.com so we can re-enroll you into a course.

You can access APEX from your computer, tablet, and smartphone.

While thousands of students and CRNAs choose APEX for board review and continuing education, what if you decide it isn’t for you?
Email us within three days of your enrollment, and we’ll give you a full refund.
Because of the nature of digital courses, we do not offer refunds (full or partial) beyond three days of your purchase.
