Joint Accreditation for CE & CME: Accreditation support for healthcare education at any scale
A boutique, white-glove partner for accredited education. A close-knit team walks you through each stage, the process is tailored to your program, and there is no setup fee.
Experience You Can See: Jointly accredited. Built from real experience.
With three years as a Jointly Accredited Provider and experience supporting 175+ organizations, Pinnacle helps bring accredited healthcare education to life across live events, courses, podcasts, webinars, and more.
Our team understands what it takes to coordinate accreditation for education that is complex, high-volume, multi-speaker, or delivered across multiple formats.
Just renewed for four more years.
RenewedWhy Pinnacle: White-glove accreditation, tailored to your program.
Your program is not treated like a template. We learn your format, audience, and timeline, then build the accreditation path around it.
No setup fee
Start the conversation and the intake without an upfront charge.
A named contact at every stage
You always know who to ask: one person plans with you before you sign, another manages your activity through review, and another runs learner credit after launch.
Tailor-made process
Materials, reviews, and timelines fitted to your activity rather than a one-size checklist.
Less than flat-rate providers
Pricing that reflects your program, so a single course is not billed like a conference.

Full-Service CE Support: Take the accreditation work off your team’s plate.
Large educational events involve hundreds or thousands of details, from speakers and agendas to educational materials, disclosures, learner communications, attendance, surveys, and certificates. You don’t have to manage the accreditation details alone.
Pinnacle works alongside your team to coordinate the required materials and disclosures, manage the learner survey and certificate process, and keep the activity moving, taking some of the work off your plate while you stay focused on your content, faculty, learners, and event.
What Pinnacle helps coordinate
- Program intake and activity planning
- Required materials and disclosures
- Content review and feedback
- Accreditation statements and launch requirements
- Learner surveys and credit tracking
- Certificate delivery
- Reporting and compliance requirements
Your Team: A real team behind every accredited activity.
Once you begin working with Pinnacle, each phase has a lead (Brittany before you sign, Krisli through planning and review, Emily for learner credit and certificates), and the team works together throughout.
