Effective Date: June 10, 2026 Last Updated: June 10, 2026
CE Halo is committed to providing high-quality continuing education for healthcare professionals. We want you to be satisfied with your purchase. This Refund Policy outlines the conditions under which refunds may be requested and processed. |
1. General Refund Window
You may request a full refund within 7 calendar days of your course purchase, provided you have NOT completed more than 20% of the course content. "Completion" for this purpose means no more than 20% of modules viewed, quizzes attempted, or assessments completed.
Important: Once 20% or more of the course has been accessed, no refund will be issued regardless of the time elapsed since purchase. |
2. Non-Refundable Circumstances
The following purchases are NOT eligible for refund:
- Courses where a CE certificate has already been issued
- Purchases made more than 7 calendar days prior to the refund request
- Courses where more than 20% of content has been accessed or viewed
- Bundle or package purchases where any course within the bundle has been completed or certificated
- Promotional or discounted purchases clearly marked as non-refundable at the time of purchase
- Requests citing dissatisfaction with a course topic to which the learner had full access via preview modules prior to purchase
3. How to Request a Refund
To initiate a refund request, email [email protected] with the following information:
- Your full name and account email address
- The name of the course(s) for which a refund is requested

CE Halo will review your request and respond within 5 business days. Approved refunds will be processed to the original payment method within 7–10 business days, depending on your bank or card issuer.
4. Technical Issues
If you experience a verified technical error that prevents access to or completion of a course (e.g., platform outage, content loading failure), CE Halo will work to resolve the issue promptly. Where resolution is not possible, CE Halo will provide a full refund regardless of the 20% content threshold.
Please document and report technical issues promptly at [email protected], including screenshots or error messages where available.
5. Bundles and Subscriptions
5.1 Bundle Purchases
For bundle purchases, refunds are evaluated on a per-course basis. If only one course in a bundle is refund-eligible under Section 1, the refund will be prorated to reflect the individual value of that course within the bundle pricing structure.
5.2 Subscription Plans
Subscription plans (if applicable) may be cancelled at any time; however, partial-month refunds are not issued. Your subscription access will remain active through the end of the current billing period following cancellation.
6. CE Credit Reversals
If a refund is approved and processed, any CE certificate issued for the refunded course will be voided in CE Halo's system. It is your sole responsibility to notify your licensing board, employer, or any organization to which you have submitted the certificate if CE credit was previously reported or claimed.
7. Consumer Rights Notice
Nothing in this Refund Policy limits or waives any consumer rights you may have under applicable federal or state law, including the Federal Trade Commission's Mail, Internet, or Telephone Order Merchandise Rule or applicable state consumer protection statutes.

POLICY 4 OF 4
Medical and Continuing Education Disclaimer
Effective Date: June 10, 2026 Last Updated: June 10, 2026
CE Halo provides continuing education courses for licensed healthcare professionals, including CRNAs, NPs, PAs, and RNs. The content on this website and within our courses is intended solely for professional continuing education and informational purposes. Please read this disclaimer carefully before using our services. |
1. Not Medical Advice
The content provided by CE Halo — including but not limited to course materials, videos, articles, case studies, quizzes, handouts, and any other written or multimedia content — is intended for professional educational purposes ONLY and does NOT constitute medical advice, clinical guidance, diagnosis, treatment recommendations, or a substitute for the independent professional judgment of a licensed healthcare provider.
CE Halo's content does not create a patient-provider relationship between CE Halo, its instructors, or its content contributors and any learner or patient. Nothing on this platform should be construed as directing or recommending specific clinical actions for individual patients.
2. Clinical Practice Decisions Are Your Responsibility
Healthcare is an evolving science. Guidelines, drug dosages, treatment protocols, and best practices change frequently. Although CE Halo strives to ensure that all course content reflects current evidence-based practice at the time of publication, CE Halo does not warrant that information is current, complete, or applicable to any particular clinical situation.
All clinical decisions must be made by the licensed healthcare professional based on their individual training, the specific clinical context, and the most current evidence available. CE Halo expressly disclaims any liability arising from clinical decisions made in reliance on its educational content.
3. Professional Licensure and CE Verification
CE Halo's courses are designed to support the professional development of licensed healthcare professionals. Completion of a CE Halo course does not guarantee:
- Acceptance of CE credits by any particular state licensing board, specialty organization, or employer
- Renewal of any professional license or certification
- Compliance with any specific continuing education mandate or employer requirement
It is your sole responsibility to verify that CE Halo's offerings meet the requirements of your licensing body before enrolling. CE Halo is not responsible for any failure to obtain CE credit due to board-specific requirements or changes in accreditation standards. CE Halo will clearly disclose the accreditation status (if any) of each course at the point of purchase.
4. Accuracy of Course Content
CE Halo makes reasonable efforts to ensure its course content is accurate, peer-reviewed (where applicable), and evidence-based. However, healthcare information evolves rapidly. CE Halo expressly disclaims all warranties, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, completeness, or fitness for a particular purpose of any course content.
Drug Dosage Notice: Drug dosages, clinical protocols, and treatment guidelines referenced in courses are provided for educational illustration only. Always verify drug dosages and clinical protocols with current prescribing information, institutional policies, and applicable clinical guidelines before clinical application. |
5. No Patient-Provider Relationship
Enrollment in CE Halo courses, communication with CE Halo instructors, or submission of course questions does NOT create a patient-provider relationship. No information communicated through the CE Halo platform should be used as a substitute for consultation with a qualified, licensed healthcare professional in a formal clinical care setting.
6. Instructor Credentials and Conflicts of Interest
CE Halo discloses instructor credentials and any relevant conflicts of interest within each course at the time of launch, in compliance with applicable accreditation standards. Learners are encouraged to review this information prior to and during course completion.
Instructor content represents the individual professional perspective of the instructor and does not necessarily reflect the official position of any professional organization, government agency, or employer.
7. Third-Party Content and Links
CE Halo may reference or link to third-party guidelines, publications, or websites for educational purposes. CE Halo does not endorse, control, or assume responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, or currency of third-party content. Learners should independently verify third-party information from primary, authoritative sources.
8. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, CE Halo, its owners, instructors, employees, and content contributors shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from:
- (a) Reliance on course content for clinical decision-making
- (b) Errors or omissions in educational materials
- (c) Failure to obtain CE credit from a licensing body
- (d) Any action or inaction taken as a result of information obtained through CE Halo's platform
