Frequently asked questions.
Clear answers about purchasing, exams, certificates, and how your MAC Ed CE credits reach the AANA.
Purchasing & access
Is this a subscription service?
No. CRNAeducation.com is a pay-as-you-go service. Creating an account does not enroll you in a subscription or recurring payment plan.
Can I choose individual articles instead of purchasing a volume?
Yes. You may purchase individual articles or choose a complete volume. The Current Articles page shows every active title, its credit value, and whether it includes pharmacology credit.
How do I access the articles I purchase?
After purchase, the articles are added to your account for immediate reading. Purchased articles remain available for lifetime reading access, although their corresponding exams must be completed before the listed expiration date.
How do I access my receipt?
A purchase confirmation is emailed to you, and a receipt is also stored in your account for later access.
Exams, evaluations & certificates
What score do I need to pass an exam?
A score of 80% or higher is required to pass an article exam.
Can I retake an exam?
Yes. You have a maximum of three attempts to pass each exam. Questions are randomized for each attempt.
Can I check the answers before submitting an exam?
No. Answers cannot be provided before the activity expires. You will review your responses before making the final submission.
When is my Certificate of Attendance available?
After you pass the exam and complete the required program evaluation, your certificate is generated and stored in your account.

Will you send my credits to the AANA?
Your earned credits are reported to the AANA by CRNAeducation.com after you complete the program.
