CPUI Study Guide: PICC Ultrasound Education The Certified PICC Ultrasound Inserter (CPUI) credentials (PICC Certification tm Program) provide the vascular access clinician validation of a higher level of knowledge and practice in the field of PICC placement. Certification is a process by which an association grants recognition to an individual who has met predetermined standards specified by that association or agency.
The CPUI tm does NOT verify competency; rather, PICC Excellence tm is certifying that the candidate has met certain standards of knowledge and training specific to PICCs as a credentialing process. How it Works After purchasing the CPUI tm program, print, complete and submit the application (see APPLICATION in the CPUI drop down menu) to PICC Excellence Inc. For approval via email, USPS or fax. When you purchased the CPUI Program, you created or signed into your account on the PICC Excellence website.
