Is This the Right Course?
This 1-hour course is designed for Michigan-licensed healthcare professionals who need one hour of implicit bias training under R 338.7004 and do not need joint accreditation or NABP reporting.
If you are applying for initial licensure or registration, Michigan requires a minimum of 2 hours — use the 2-Hour Michigan Implicit Bias Training instead.
Important reporting note: This 1-hour course does not report to NABP CPE Monitor. Renew Now CE reports completions to CE Broker for nursing and pharmacy where applicable.
If you need NABP CPE Monitor reporting or additional jointly accredited credit, use the 2-hour or 3-hour jointly accredited activity.
