Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q.  How do I register and does it cost anything?
A.  Registration is free and all you have to do is fill out the registration form displayed under "Register now."

Q.  What if I forgot my password?
A.  Your userid is your first initial followed by your middle initial (if used when registering) and your last name (with no spaces in between).  Be sure to use all lowercase letters.  Your password is the last 5 digits of your social security number.  If you still need help with your password, you can call us at 1-800-301-5262 or email us at medway@ssbinc.com.

Q.  Through whom are the courses accredited?
A.  All of our courses are approved for nurses by the state of Florida, provider number NCE 3236 and by the state of California, provider number CEP 11921.  Our respiratory courses are approved by the AARC as category 1 contact hours for respiratory care practitioners.  Provider numbers are found in the course list.

Q.  Does my state accept online contact hours? Can I do all of them online?
A.  Each state differs in CE requirements and the allowable online amount.  Please check with your state board for more information.  

Q.  Is it safe to use my credit card online?
A.  Yes.  We have built in security, called the secure sockets layer, to protect our clients.  All credit card information is encrypted (scrambled) when entered and de-scrambled when it arrives, so we are the only receivers of the information.  For more information, see our Privacy Policy.

Q.  What if I don't want to pay by credit card?
A.  You may call in the information, fax it in, or pay by mail.  See the instructions under the Payment Options for more information.

Q.  What is the return policy?
A. 
If for any reason you are unsatisfied with the course(s) you have purchased, call us, or email your request to MedWay within 30 days of purchase. You must request a refund prior to taking the test for credit; no refund will be issued after the test has been completed.  Please include your full name, userid, and method of payment with your request.

Q.  Can I save money by taking more than one course at a time?
A.  Yes.  Our courses are grouped by topic into different series. You can save on each course when purchasing the entire series.

Q.  Can I do the courses by mail?
A.  Yes.  Call us at 1-800-301-5262 and we will send you information regarding course selection and payment options.  You can complete the courses at home and send in the posttest.  When you receive a passing score, we will send you the certificate of completion.  Allow  2-3 weeks for delivery of the certificate.

Q.  Do you offer group rates?
A.  We offer discounted rates to groups of ten or more.  Facilities can have access to our mandatory inservice modules and customized courses for their employees.  We will be glad to discuss cost savings and advantages with you.  See our Corporate Information area, call us at 1-800-301-5262, or email us at medway@ssbinc.com.

Q.  What if I get logged off in the middle of a test? What if I ordered several courses, but I don't want to take them all at once?
A.  If you lose your internet connection during a test, you will need to sign on and begin the test again.  Answers are not saved until you click the submit button at the end of the test.  Once you have registered and paid for a course, you have access to that course and test for one year.

Q.  Can I print out the course for reading offline?
A.  Yes.  Just click the print button in your browser while viewing either the course or test.  You may read the material and then sign on online to answer the test and submit the answers.

Q.  Can I retake the test if I don't pass on the first try?
A.  You may retake the test as often as necessary to receive a passing score at no added cost.

Q.  How do I get my certificate and how long does it take?
A.  You may generate your own certificate online to be printed at your location, or we can send you a certificate through the mail.  You will find information on generating your certificate under Certificate Information.

Q.  Can I take the same course two years in a row?
A.  No.  Since many states do not accept contact hours for the same course two years in a row, our system only allows you to take the course every other year.

Q.  What time zone is used when posting the course results?
A.  MedWay's server uses Eastern Standard Time, therefore all test scores are recorded at that time.  If you are on Pacific time and take your test at midnight on December 31, it will be recorded as January 1 at 2am.

Q.  How can I contact MedWay?
