Cardiology CME is essential for NPs, PAs, RNs, and physicians who want to keep pace with evolving cardiovascular treatments. Skin, Bones, Hearts & Private Parts offers Cardiology CME at five remaining 2026 destination conferences: Nashville, Pensacola Beach, Orlando, Denver, and Las Vegas. Virtual and on-demand Cardiology CME options are also available. Attendees earn up to 26 CME credits per in-person event, taught by top-rated NP and PA cardiology educators.
Why Cardiology CME Matters More Than Ever
One in every five deaths in the U.S. is related to cardiovascular disease, and more than 23,000 children experience cardiac arrest outside of the hospital each year. Nearly half of U.S. adults also have high blood pressure, while just one in four has it under control.
At the same time, treatments and strategies for cardiovascular health care are constantly evolving. New drug classes, updated guidelines, and emerging technologies reshape best practice on a regular basis. That reality makes Cardiology CME and lifelong learning a key component of providing excellent patient care for NPs, PAs, RNs, and physicians.
What Is Cardiology CME?
Cardiology CME is continuing medical education focused on the heart and cardiovascular system. It covers topics like EKG interpretation, heart failure guidelines, cardiac pharmacology, cardiomyopathy, and emergency cardiology.
At Skin, Bones, Hearts & Private Parts, a leading provider of continuing medical education (CME), we are so committed to offering Cardiology CME that all five of our remaining 2026 CME conferences include a full-day focus on cardiology and emergency medicine.

On-Demand CME Courses
Our On-Demand CME Courses are the most flexible online option, allowing you to earn CME credits from anywhere at any time by purchasing a pre-recorded course and learning at your own pace. Our comprehensive 22-course Best of the Best of 2025 package, for example, offers 29.25 CME credit hours (Rx=7) and includes courses on cardiology.

Cardiology CME Suited for YOU
No matter your choice, finding Cardiology CME that appeals to your learning style and meets your needs is critical. The best CME in the world is not useful if it does not meet the needs of the NPs, PAs, RNs, and physicians who need it.
As Dr. C. Richard Conti, M.D., M.A.C.C. Editor-in-Chief of Clinical Cardiology pointed out, “Continuing medical education should be focal, could be vocal, must be topical, is sometimes social, and sometimes benefits from some humor in the presentation.”
Lucky for you, Skin, Bones, Hearts & Private Parts offers it all:
- Multiple speakers with varied backgrounds focus on different aspects of cardiovascular medicine.
- Whether in-person, virtual, or on-demand CME is your preference, you are treated to leading thought leaders in cardiology and emergency medicine. Sessions cover the most current and cutting-edge research and training available.
- We choose destination locations for our CME Conferences. That enables our attendees to network by the pool, on the beach, at the parks, or in dazzling urban environments. Similarly, we select the most knowledgeable, engaging, and entertaining speakers in the field.
