* Reconciling Values -- 12 hours (elective)
These courses can be completed in as few as six months or spread out over several years, depending on your schedule and educational needs. The most distinct advantage of the ACPE Section I program is that it allows our members to receive training in fundamental management principles at their own pace without having to commit to a long and costly program. At the same time, our members are receiving CME and building a transcript that can be used to meet the educational pre-requisites for the MMM through Tulane University, Carnegie Mellon University or University of Southern California or online MBA from University of Massachusetts.
