The CME you finish before you board
This curriculum is online, self-paced enduring material. You complete the coursework and the activity evaluation at home, and your 12 credits are claimed before you ever pack a bag.
How the pre-board model works
The accredited online curriculum opens roughly eight weeks before the sailing date. Finishing it is what reserves your place in the experience aboard. The ship carries no lectures and no credit, so once you arrive, the work is already behind you.
Whole-body health
Twelve credits across the pillars of physical health. Completed online, then lived aboard through strength, food, and recovery.
- Apply current evidence on resistance training and body composition to patient counseling and personal practice.
- Assess metabolic and hormonal markers relevant to midlife health.
- Construct nutrition guidance that supports adherence rather than restriction.
- Integrate sleep and recovery principles into a maintainable routine.
Then the trip is yours
You finish the work on land. So the ship is free to be everything we never get enough of.
We meet each morning for a workout, a little grounding, connection, and fun. Then you go about your day and do what you have earned.
Enjoy.
The formal statements
Accreditation statement
The Fit Collective® is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
Credit designation statement
The Fit Collective® designates this enduring material activity for a maximum of 12 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
Disclosure of relevant financial relationships
In accordance with the ACCME Standards for Integrity and Independence in Accredited Continuing Education, all individuals in a position to control the content of this activity have disclosed any relevant financial relationships, and all such relationships have been mitigated. Disclosure information is provided to learners before the activity begins.
The cruise is separate
CME credit is earned solely through the online enduring material completed before sailing. The onboard experience is a wellness program, not a CME activity, and carries no credit. The educational content is developed independently of the cruise line and any travel or commercial sponsor.
Because the coursework is finished on land rather than aboard the ship, the CME tuition is treated like any other continuing-education expense. The restrictive rules that apply to seminars held on a cruise are not in play here, since no education takes place at sea.
The cruise itself is a personal trip, booked and paid for separately.
