Build a Structured UGPIV Training Program for Your Organization

Give your clinicians, educators, and preceptors a shared pathway for ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous (UGPIV) education. The Multi-User All-In-One Ultrasound Mastery Certificate Training Start to Finish brings together foundational coursework, guidance for practice and performance assessment, training resources, and the UGPIV Mastery Certificate examination.

Designed to support both learners and the people who train them, this site license helps your organization connect online education with simulation, supervised insertions, and documented performance assessment. Use the program to develop a consistent training approach and support preceptors who will guide future learners.

Two Core Components. One Defined Learning Pathway.

All-In-One UGPIV Mastery Certificate Training Start to Finish Course

Bring the prerequisite education together in one course. Begin with the Mastery Training Guidance content, then progress through the knowledge and procedural concepts that support ultrasound-guided peripheral IV insertion.

Educational topics and supporting tools address:

  • Basic ultrasound principles and image interpretation
  • Relevant anatomy and vessel identification
  • Vein assessment and catheter selection
  • Aseptic Non-Touch Technique (ANTT) key concepts
  • UGPIV preparation and needling key signs
  • Ultrasound-guided peripheral IV insertion
  • Validation, coaching, and performance assessment

UG155 UGPIV Mastery Certificate Exam

After documented completion of the required training elements, eligible learners receive access to the final UGPIV Mastery Certificate examination. Successful completion of the examination and program requirements leads to the UGPIV Mastery Certificate and recognition on the PICC Excellence Mastery Certificate Registry.

Tools to Connect Education with Supervised Practice

A sustainable training program needs more than course content. The UGPIV Mastery training resources help learners and preceptors organize practice, document progress, and evaluate performance against the program’s defined standards.

  • Mastery Training Guidance: Start with an overview of the program and the steps needed to progress through the learning pathway.
  • Resource Manual: Use the program’s “how-to” guidance to support implementation, learner preparation, and preceptor instruction.
  • Simulation and Supervised Insertion Guidance: Connect coursework with deliberate practice and supervised procedural learning.
  • Competency and Coaching Forms: Support structured observation, feedback, and documentation during the learning process.
  • Performance and Data Collection Tools: Document the Minimum Performance Score (MPS), supervised-insertion mastery ratings, and data collection required for progression to the Mastery Examination.

Support Your Team Today—and Your Future Training Needs

  • Standardize the learning pathway: Give clinicians a common sequence of education, practice, assessment, and documentation.
  • Strengthen preceptor preparation: Equip trainers with guidance and tools to support consistent instruction and meaningful feedback.
  • Make progress visible: Use structured performance records to identify learning needs and document completion of required training elements.
  • Support ongoing onboarding: Incorporate the pathway into your organization’s approach to preparing new UGPIV clinicians and developing future preceptors.
  • Connect learning with recognition: Provide eligible clinicians with a defined pathway toward the UGPIV Mastery Certificate.

Mastery Certificate and Clinical Competency

The UGPIV Mastery Certificate recognizes completion of defined knowledge and training standards specific to ultrasound-guided peripheral IV insertion. Clinical competency is established by the employer and/or preceptor through the appropriate supervised assessment process.

The program’s educational resources and assessment tools support that process alongside your organization’s policies, scope-of-practice requirements, and clinical expectations.

Who This License Is Designed For

  • Healthcare organizations developing or expanding UGPIV services
  • Vascular access and infusion teams
  • Emergency department and acute care nursing teams
  • Clinicians preparing for supervised UGPIV insertion
  • Educators and clinical preceptors developing a consistent training process
  • Professional development leaders supporting ongoing staff education

Invest in a Repeatable Approach to UGPIV Education

Bring education, practice guidance, performance documentation, and the Mastery Certificate pathway together under one multi-user site license. Support individual learners while giving your educators resources they can use to develop and sustain your organization’s UGPIV training program.
