Continuing Education Credit

  • Southeast AETC – All other portions of the END HIV Academy will be accredited through the Southeast AETC.

Surveys

To help us assess how effective this program is and make improvements for the future, we will ask you to complete several surveys throughout the process. These surveys are distinct from the individual evaluations you will complete in order to receive CE for specific sessions in END HIV Academy.

  • Baseline survey (complete before Feb. 14th)
  • Final Program Evaluation: Includes two parts, one anonymous and one identified. This will be sent out at the end of the program.
  • Availability Survey (complete before Feb 14th)

These surveys are immensely helpful in allowing us to observe the impact of the program, which helps us make the case to our funders that they should continue to fund programs like this in the future. We greatly appreciate the time you spend completing surveys.
