Course Instructions and Guidance
​
(1) Presentations will be given live Thursday mornings 8 AM to 9 AM Eastern time. The tab for [Join Live Presentation] is only active when the lectures are being given.
(2) The videos and the slide decks for each presentation will be posted for continued access, and in particular for those who are unable to watch the presentations live. You can see the full content of last year’s course by going to the tab above, [Curriculum 2024-2025]. The pull-down menu provides access to all of the material from last year.
(3) Continuing education credit. This is new!
Participation in each topic can earn 1-hour of continuing education credit. This will entail going to the [Link For Continuing Education Credit] at the bottom of the page for each lecture and completing a multiple choice quiz on the topic. Upon completion of the post-lecture quiz, learners can download a certificate, acknowledging the 1-hour credit for the topic and date.
The continuing education certification is being provided by Global Learning Collaborative (GLC). See the link to the GLC accreditation statement below.
Fellows and other trainees do not need Continuing Education Credits, however, they can still download the certificates to provide to program directors, to confirm completion.
(4) HEO is a free for all to use, and non-commercial. We are committed to always keeping the course free and to continue to provide valuable education in hematology.
