What is the difference between Continuing Education and continuing medical education?
At its simplest, the difference between CME and CE is that Continuing Education applies to all licensed medical professionals, whereas Continuing Medical Education applies primarily to physicians. In essence, all CME is CE, but not all CE is CME.
Is a CME the same as a CEU?
LOCs are issued for credits earned by a physician for activities that were not certified for physician CME. If an activity is certified for nurse CE, then nurses will receive a CE certificate for ANCC nurse CE credit. The CE Tracker shows CE credits and LOC credits for nurses.

While CMEs are specifically designed for physicians, CEUs cater to a broader range of professionals, including nurses and therapists. With varying accreditation bodies, measurement units, and professional requirements, managing these educational credits can be challenging for healthcare facilities.
