Online Continuing Education in Medical Staff Services--Basics of Credentialling!!


In 2009, El Centro College began to offer a series of affordable online continuing education courses in medical staff services.

The first of these courses, Basics of Credentialing, a four-week course, will be offered again beginning March 22 and following that on the first Monday of each month for the foreseeable future. Tuition is $99.00. To register and pay by credit card, call the Continuing Education Division at 214-860-2260 or 214-860-2696 and ask for course number MSST 2000.53101. NAMSS has accredited the program for 10 CEU's. Other courses will be offered at a later date.

The textbook, The Medical Staff Services Handbook: Fundamentals and Beyond, by Gassiot, Searcy and Giles, will be used for the course and is available online from Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble. Please note that it takes two weeks to receive the textbook if ordered online. If you have new staff in your department needing in-depth information on credentialing, this course is perfect for them. It is also a good refresher for those of you who need CEU's to maintain your credentials. Don't delay, register today!

For more information on the Basics of Credentialing course or El Centro College's 64-credit hour online Associate Degree in Medical Staff Services, please contact Cindy Gassiot at cgassiot@satx.rr.com or bonnie.conley@trinitymedicalcenter.com.
