How to Earn CME/CE Credit for a Lecture
The required steps and order to complete activities and claim credit.
Required Steps (in recommended order)
To earn CME/CE credit you must complete:
- Review introductory content (Educational Objectives + Faculty/Planner Disclosures).
- Listen to the full audio program and review accompanying learning materials / summary.
- Complete the Post-test (after Step 2) and achieve a passing score of ≥80%.
- Complete the Evaluation (strongly recommended).
Pre-test is recommended (taken before listening) but not mandatory for credit. It is designed to be taken only once.
Post-test Rules
- Multiple choice (A–D).
- Passing = 80% or higher.
- Most activities allow multiple attempts until you pass.
- CRNAs: Special rules apply — post-test may only be submitted once; Evaluation is required. See Accreditation page for details.
- After passing, you will be directed to the Evaluation.
Credit Validity
Most AudioDigest activities qualify for credit for up to 35 months from publication date (check specific activity).
After Completion
