The Alabama Continuing Education Approval Application 2015 is an application for continuing education providers who wish to offer their courses for continuing education credits in the state of Alabama. The application is designed to ensure that courses meet the necessary standards for continuing education credit. It is divided into two parts: the Provider Application and the Course Application. The Provider Application requires providers to provide information about the provider's history, qualifications, and resources. This helps the Alabama Board of Nursing evaluate the provider’s ability to provide quality continuing education programs. The Course Application requires providers to provide detailed information about each course offered, such as learning objectives, course topics, and the amount of time needed to complete the course. This helps the Alabama Board of Nursing determine if the course meets their standards for continuing education credit. The Alabama Continuing Education Approval Application 2015 is divided into three types: the Basic Application, the Advanced Application, and the Advanced Plus Application. The Basic Application is for providers who have not yet submitted a course for approval. The Advanced Application is for providers who have already submitted a course and are submitting additional courses. The Advanced Plus Application is for providers who are submitting courses that require an additional review.
