Education platform
We'll cover how providers can earn CE/CME credits on Violet’s platform and how completing education can contribute to their Benchmark growth.
How do providers earn CE/CME on Violet's platform?
Each eligible Violet collection is equal to one CE/CME credit hour. Providers can download their certificates directly from the platform after answering a few short survey questions by navigating to Education > My education > Completions & certificates. Additionally, providers can easily filter educational content by the relevant accrediting body.
Violet is certified to offer prescribed credit from the following organizations:
- American Medical Association (AMA)
- National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC)
- New York State Department of Education for psychology, mental health counseling, and social work (NYSED)
- American Academy of PAs (AAPA)
- American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC)
- Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE)
- Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR)
- American Psychological Association (APA)
- Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB)
- American Dental Association's Continuing Education Recognition Program (ADA CERP)
How does completing Violet education impact Benchmark growth?
We don’t prescribe a fixed number of educational collections to achieve cultural awareness, proficiency, or excellence. Doing so would reduce the effort to a box-checking exercise, which we aim to avoid. Instead, we view Violet’s education as one lever in an ongoing journey toward cultural competence. We encourage providers to thoroughly complete their profiles and regularly update them with any relevant studies or work outside of Violet to accurately reflect their ongoing efforts and growth.
That said, providers without a Benchmark in a specific community can often achieve an Awareness Benchmark by completing relevant educational collections on Violet’s platform. We’ve made it easy to filter education by community, enabling providers to focus their learning efforts where it makes the most sense.
