Non-Prior Approval Applications

AANA and NBCRNA have collaborated to develop a modification for the Non-Prior Approval process for CRNAs.

This change will allow CRNAs to submit Non-Prior Approval applications for CE credits for educational programs approved by an accredited provider of continuing education, such as Continuing Medical Education (CME) or Continuing Nursing Education (CNE), along with all requirements as specified in the application directions, one of which is a statement of relevancy to your nurse anesthesia practice.

Go to Non-Prior Approval Applications

Individual

This application is for nurse anesthetists who are applying to AANA for Non-Prior Approval for attendance at or participation in a learning activity. The individual Non-Prior application is to be used for continuing education (CE) credit if the activity was not prior approved by the AANA, but was approved for CE credit by another recognized approval organization before the start of the program.

Review the instructions before completing the application. These instructions are also available in the CE Portal.

College University Course

This application is for nurse anesthetists who are applying to AANA for Non-Prior Approval for a college/university course. Continuing education credit (CE) is awarded for academic coursework that, when completed, is entered on an official college/university transcript.

See Instructions. These instructions are also available in the CE Portal.

Group Non-Prior

This application is for providers who are applying to AANA for Non-Prior Approval for a program after it was held. The group Non-Prior application is to be used for continuing education (CE) credit if the activity was not prior approved by the AANA, but was approved for CE credit by another recognized approval organization before the start of the program.
