About This Product

Advance your skills in ultrasound-guided peripheral IV insertion with our Ultrasound Mastery Certificate Training, a complete, start-to-finish program designed for individual clinicians and facility teams. This blended learning experience includes a comprehensive 4-hour online course and a five-module hands-on workshop that guides you step-by-step through simulation practice to prepare for patient insertions.

The workshop modules break down the essential components of ultrasound-guided insertion, helping you develop needle and probe control, improve precision, and apply practices intended to reduce complications and support catheter dwell time. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced clinician, this program provides a structured pathway to master the UGPIV procedure.

The All-In-One Ultrasound Guided PIV Mastery Certificate Training Start to Finish Course supports individual learning and facility-based training. A train-the-trainer component helps facilities develop preceptors for ongoing education, supervised practice, and skill reinforcement.
