Anybody know of any good sites for free CEU/CME?
I'd also be interested in paid sites if it offered such things as lecture/videos to view online and then get credit, with good topics.
I do locums and don't get any money for CME and REALLY need to get working on obtaining more. I have a few sites that I use, such as primed, which are good, it just seems like it takes forever to build up the credits, read a long article, take a test and then get .25 of a credit! Takes awhile to add up and we need 150 in 5 years for ANCC re-cert! I need 25 by April for my TX license and only have about 7 so far...
Also any low cost conference recommendations would be helpful, I keep trying to sign up for pri-med but they are always full.
(I'm in Texas now and plan to stay in West/midwest region for locations)
Thanks

So, are CMEs the same as CEUs? I occasionally go to grand rounds in an area of practice that I find very interesting at local teaching hospital (open to all to attend) and they offer 1.0 hour CME for attendance. It's free, and it's catered: sandwiches, chips and soda/drinks.
