Requesting HEI Training Credit

Healthcare facilities that are participating must request credit for trainings, other than The National LGBTQIA+ Health Education Center or certain approved training from the VHA. Information about trainings completed through The National LGBTIA+ Health Education Center, or these approved trainings from the VHA, will be provided directly to the HEI team by our learning partners.

You need to request credit for:

1. Any approved trainings that staff at your facility views as a group.
   1. Includes group viewings of any of the approved trainings from the National LGBTQIA+ Health Education Center, and the VHA, and any external in-person group trainings (that have been pre-approved by the HEI).
   2. You must compile participant information into a spreadsheet or a formal LMS report and include them when submitting your Training Request Form. Please make sure to include the Facility name and Facility ID. If you need to submit participant data for multiple facilities, please complete a separate submission form for each Facility/Facility ID.
2. Any external trainings (that have been pre-approved by the HEI) that are implemented through a healthcare facility's internal Learning Management System (LMS) system.
   1. If the training is completed through your internal LMS system you should submit a report from that system instead of sign-in sheets.
3. Other external trainings on LGBTQ+ health that have been pre-approved for use in the HEI.
   
   
4. Any other external trainings on LGBTQ+ health that provide CME/CEU credit.
   
   

Training Credit Request Form

The Training Credit Request Form must be submitted by an official representative of the facility—ideally, the official HEI submitter for a facility will submit this form. The form will require you to upload validation of training completion such as sign in sheets, LMS attendance reports, or copies of CME/CEU certificates.

Additionally, if your training was completed through Zoom or Microsoft Teams webinar, please submit an attendee report that details login time and length of attendance.

For the HEI 2026, we will accept any trainings completed from January 1, 2024 forward.
