Fellow Mediators, My Gift to You.... Free CMEs


Did you know that you can complete your entire CME requirement virtually (watching videos) FOR FREE? It’s true! AND you can double-dip in that you can use hours that you used for another profession (attorney, mental health professional, realtor, etc.) towards the general education portion of your CMEs.

Here is a list of no-cost CME offerings. This list is a work in progress.  If you have an addition, OR find the link to a presentation is no longer working, please let me know.
