What is MyAHEC?
MyAHEC is an online service of the North Carolina Area Health Education Centers (NC AHEC) Program providing personalized services and resources to North Carolina's health care professionals. MyAHEC combines resources from the nine NC AHEC regional offices and makes them available on a single website to a statewide audience. The available resources vary by user and are designed to provide the services and information required by each individual user based on their relationship(s) to NC AHEC. MyAHEC currently provides services and resources to continuing education participants and presenters, students requesting NC AHEC housing, and anyone wishing to receive NC AHEC marketing materials. Future versions of MyAHEC are planned to support the AHEC-related activities of school or departmental liaisons, AHEC preceptors, residents, students, AHEC staff, and others.

Why so many questions during the account creation process?
Creating a MyAHEC account is a little more complicated than creating your typical online account because of the information we're attempting to manage. Even before you've created your MyAHEC account, you may already be in the NC AHEC Continuing Education database if you've ever participated in a NC AHEC CE event. Associating your existing CE record to your new account on MyAHEC allows us to provide the greatest possible level of service and support, so we try hard to get it right. In order to identify the correct record for you in our CE database, we have to ask you for your name, the last four digits of your Social Security number, and one other verifying piece of information -- usually a Zip Code or Email Address -- that we have on file for you. Your trust is very important to NC AHEC and, as we state on the login page, all personal information is kept strictly confidential. NC AHEC will never share your personal information with any individual, business or organization.

What is the MyAHEC CE Record feature?
The MyAHEC CE Record feature allows MyAHEC account holders to track their personal continuing education and credit history. The CE Record is divided into two sections: AHEC CE and Self-Reported CE. Information within the AHEC CE portion of the CE Record is pulled directly from the AHEC CE database. Information within the Self-Reported CE section of the CE Record is input by the user. Tools exist for the creation and maintenance of Self-Reported CE items. Additionally, users can create a PDF document of their CE Record by selecting the CE events they wish to include.
