AWHONN’s Intermediate Fetal Heart Monitoring Course is an excellent interdisciplinary course for perinatal registered nurses. This course assumes the learner has previously completed entry-level/basic fetal monitoring education. It is designed for perinatal clinicians who use fetal heart monitoring in the intrapartum setting.

The Association of Women's Health, Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses (AWHONN) is an accredited continuing education provider by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation (ANCC) and by the California Board of Registered Nursing (BRN), Provider #CEP580. AWHONN will award 11.25 nursing contact hours to nurses who attended this program in it's entirety and complete an evaluation. We urge you to be aware of the continuing education requirements of your own state of board of nursing, especially for those states in which CE is mandatory.
