The Division of Anatomy in The Ohio State University College of Medicine (OSU-COM) is excited to announce a series of continuing education units (CEUs) in gross anatomy. These CEUs will provide educators from different academic backgrounds with an opportunity to learn detailed gross anatomy from anatomy faculty members at OSU-COM.
The anatomy CEUs are structured as asynchronous learning blocks to allow each participant the flexibility to complete the training at their own pace. Upon completion of an asynchronous block, participants will be awarded a Certificate of Completion from the Office of Curriculum and Scholarship from OSU-COM covering 1 CEU. In addition to the six asynchronous blocks there will be two separate, one week in-person laboratory-based anatomy CEUs (each session is worth 3 CEUs) that are available after completing the online learning blocks.

Translational Head and Neck Anatomy
This course, housed within the College of Dentristry, allows participants to learn by examining traditional and fresh-like embalmed specimens in order to figure out specific case scenarios. The goal of this CEU is to correlate relevant anatomy with patient examination and treatment optimization.
