Important CME, CLE & CDE presented weekly in 33 Sun & Ski classrooms

You practice in a dynamic and challenging environment. While keeping clinically current is imperative, it isn't enough. You must also acquire the skills necessary to navigate a professional liability minefield, manage a more effective and efficient practice, and navigate a maze of healthcare laws and regulations.

So the need to keep professionally current is obvious but the question is when? American Educational Institute has provided the answer for over 29 years. Through September 28, 2012 you will have over 900 opportunities to get the continuing education you want and the credits you need - away from the distractions and tumult of your practice. Far away. Like in Hawaii, Aspen, Aruba, Vail or any of 33 other premier destination resorts.

The course is a unique, 20 hour survey of the intersection of medicine and law as well as selected clinical topics. The 2011-12 Medical-Dental-Legal Update is produced in state-of-the-art production studios using broadcast-grade digital technology and is approved for up to 20 AMA PRA Category 1 CME Credits™ as well as extensive CLE and CE credit. Learn to reduce your malpractice and regulatory risk and even view an actual malpractice trial. Explore healthcare reform's impact on physicians, the pros and cons of physician-hospital integration, and how to choose the proper legal structure for your practice. Get updated on important clinical issues like ambulatory pain management, current HIV/AIDS treatment options, newly approved drugs and drug safety updates, and proper stewardship of antibiotics. Remarkably, this is just a sampling.

Critical Continuing Medical, Dental & Legal education - where you want to go and when you want to go there. That's been AEI's hallmark since 1982. A distinction validated by over 100,000 registrations, and the fact that over 98% of our students say that they'd recommend AEI to their colleagues.

Pick your destination and receive in-depth instruction on important topics you'll be hard pressed to find taught elsewhere. And all the while enjoy the luxury of learning in a relaxed and beautiful environment with plenty of time left over to enjoy it.
