Your Competitive Edge

by | Nov 11, 2024 | Business of Biotech

The life sciences industry is fast-evolving, driven by breakthroughs and ever-advancing technologies. Staying current isn’t just beneficial—it’s essential. Continuing professional education (CPE) courses offer an edge, enabling life science financial professionals to keep pace with innovations, advance their careers, and sharpen in-demand skills.

Accredited CPE Credits

Like college courses, CPE courses award credits, requiring an exam to validate knowledge gained. Top-tier CPE accreditor, the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA), ensures CPE courses meet rigorous content, delivery, assessment, and licensing standards. This accreditation guarantees that Biotech Primer’s CPE microcourses meet the high standards expected by professionals in life sciences finance. Check out Biotech Primer’s NASBA profile.

The Power of NASBA

NASBA is an association dedicated to serving the 56 state boards of accountancy. These boards regulate the accountancy profession in the United States of America. There is one board for each of the 50 states, plus the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa. What this means for you—our CPE microcourses are guaranteed to give you NASBA-compliant CPE credits.
