Testimonial –
The CAEP Live and on-Demand webinars have brought a wealth of knowledge by the experts right to my home. The live interactivity has answered a lot of my own questions, and if I can’t tune in I can access the recordings at any time to watch or re-watch! I highly encourage any ED doc to use these webinars as an educational tool !
