Interested in developing Core Modules? View the Core Modules Submission Handbook and Guidelines.
NOTE: One Core Module from each of the four content areas is required in each 4-year CPC cycle. Core Module credits also cross-count as Class A credits, since they are both prior-approved and include an assessment. Beginning in 2020/2021—whenever the CRNA's second 4-year CPC cycle begins (for all CRNAs initially certified prior to 8/1/2016)--the Core Modules will become a required component of the CPC Program.
