What is it?
PE Online is a widely used platform for managing professional education (PE) and accreditation, primarily used in the healthcare field in the Netherlands. It automates the process of tracking completed courses, ensuring compliance with certification requirements, and maintaining accreditation records for learners. By automating these processes, PE Online reduces administrative burden and ensures that professionals remain compliant with industry standards.
In the context of learning platforms, PE Online integrates with educational systems to track course completions and submit them for accreditation. This ensures that professionals receive credit for their training without manual intervention.
How to integrate?
For a successful integration with PE Online, organisations must first request credentials from PE Online. After that, the feature can be enabled in the platform, and activities can be linked to PE Online.
