CONTINUING EDUCATION - Spring 2026

LSU Health Department of Medical Laboratory Science is approved as a provider of continuing education programs in the clinical laboratory sciences by the Clinical Laboratory Personnel Committee (CLPC) of the Louisiana State Board of Medical Examiners (LSBME). These seminars are offered FREE only for individuals who hold a CURRENT Louisiana CLP license. They are also accepted for BOC Credential Maintenance Program (CMP) credit by the ASCP Board of Certification.

CE sessions will be provided live via Zoom one time with the presenter. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions after the seminar. Each session will be recorded during the live presentation and posted on CE Broker for use on-demand at a later date. To obtain CE credit for on-demand seminars, participants will be required to take a post-test based on the seminar. Previously recorded seminars can be found here.
