How the Mededsys.com Course Purchase Process Works

Updated

Mededsys.com sells accredited continuing education (CE) courses for respiratory therapists, nurses, and other healthcare professionals, and the purchase flow is a short sequence: pick your profession and state, add courses to the cart, check out, and apply a discount code if you have one. This walkthrough covers each step, what you should see, and the common snags — based on the site's own "How this site works" section and its published offers.

Before You Start

Two things determine which courses you see, so settle them first:

  • Your profession. The site runs separate catalogs for respiratory therapists and for nurses (there's a dedicated nurse site link). Choosing the wrong one means you'll browse courses that don't count toward your license.
  • Your state. The respiratory therapy section asks you to select your state from a dropdown (Alabama through Wyoming) so you're routed to the correct regional course list. This matters most if you're in California, where the site flags updated CA Board of Respiratory requirements.

If you're renewing a license, have your license type and renewal deadline on hand — the site organizes courses around licensure renewal, so you'll want to confirm the course matches your board's requirement before buying.

Step-by-Step: Buying a Course

1. Choose your profession and state

From the homepage, select the respiratory therapist or nurse path. Respiratory therapists then pick a state from the dropdown to reach the right regional section.

2. Browse the catalog

Courses are grouped by clinical topic, including respiratory, critical care, disease control, ventilator management, pharmacology, infectious disease, sleep disorders, and leadership. You can also go straight to a purchase category:

  • Live CEUs / Webinars — scheduled live sessions
  • Memberships — a subscription-style option
  • On sale — discounted courses
  • Courses on sale and Hot Deals — the current promotions

3. Add to cart and check out

Add the course(s) you want, then proceed to checkout. This is where you enter any discount code.

4. Apply a discount code (optional)

The site publishes two codes at the time of writing:

Code What it does Condition
TAKE10 Takes $10 off instantly Applied at checkout
GET50 50% off the second course Buy one course, get the second half off

Enter the code in the checkout field before completing payment. If a code doesn't apply, the usual cause is that the cart doesn't meet the condition — GET50 needs two courses, and TAKE10 is a flat order discount.

5. Complete payment and access your course

Finish checkout to enroll. The site describes its courses as distance learning, so expect to complete them online rather than in person (except for the live webinars, which run on a schedule).

Choosing Between the Purchase Options

The four purchase paths aren't interchangeable — pick based on how you renew:

  • Single courses — best if you need one or two specific topics to fill a renewal gap.
  • Live CEUs / Webinars — choose these if your board requires live (not self-study) credits, or if you want scheduled interaction.
  • Memberships — worth considering if you'll take several courses across a renewal cycle; compare the membership price against buying the same courses individually.
  • Sale / Hot Deals courses — the cheapest entry point, but confirm the discounted course still matches your required topic and credit type.

Common Snags

  • Wrong state selected. If the course list looks off, recheck your state selection — the respiratory section is region-routed.
  • Discount code rejected. Verify the cart meets the code's condition (GET50 requires two courses).
  • Accreditation questions. Mededsys states it is AARC-nationwide approved and CEBROKER compliant, and lists the California Board of Registered Nursing, Florida Board of Nursing, and DC Board of Nursing among its accreditations. If your board isn't listed, confirm acceptance before purchasing — accreditation is board-specific, and the site's own list is the source to check against.

What to Verify Before You Buy

Because CE requirements vary by state and profession, confirm three things against your own board's rules: the credit type (live vs. self-study), the topic, and the number of units. Mededsys was founded in 1997 as Medical Education Systems, Inc. and positions itself on "excellent pricing" and an extensive curriculum — but pricing and eligibility for your specific license are things only your board's requirements and the course page can confirm.
