“CRCE Through the Journal” Goes Monthly
Our popular “CRCE Through the Journal” program that’s always been featured annually in the Aug. issue of Respiratory Care will be offered on a monthly basis throughout 2011, making it easier for everyone to earn up to 12 CRCE contact hours over the course of the year.

Board Revises FAARC Criteria
Nominees for the coveted Fellow of the American Association for Respiratory Care, or “FAARC,” designation will have to meet a few new requirements this year. The AARC Board of Directors voted to make three major changes to eligibility and nomination criteria, plus one change in the deadline for the receipt of nominations.
