If you take the online program thats offered for $70 on the AWOHNN website are you then EFM certified? If not how do you become certified?

I have the same question. I took online basic FHM course (AWHONN). Does it mean that I am certified?

Does any one know if passing the on-line course does constitute "Certification" in FHM?

No, certification is a separate credential, with a test you must take to prove competency. This program you are discussing is education to get you prepared to work in any L and D or antepartum unit, reading FHM strips.
For certification you need to visit:
http://www.nccwebsite.org/resources/docs/09efm3.pdf
There, you find the online catalog to guide you in gaining certification in FHM, which is considered a "sub-specialty" certification.
