All cardiologists, CT surgeons, PAs, NPs and RNs and others involved in cardiac care are invited to join us at the 18th Annual Oregon Cardiovascular Symposium - Virtual. We will be applying for CME, MOC and CNE contact hours for participants to earn following viewing each of the recorded sessions. Not only will the sessions be available for viewing at your leisure - so too will your ability to earn continuing education credits. Your schedule and your timing - no need to sit in a chair for 2 full days and watch it live!

Register now - and then on April 16th, 2021, the sessions will be open for viewing, learning and earning continuing education credits. If you are in need of CME or CEU credits prior to March 31, 2021, consider registering for both the 2020 and 2021 Symposia and receiving a $100 credit off of the 2020 rate ($125 for non-physicians and $225 for physicians.) The credit only applies to the 2020 rate)
