Free General Practice CME Courses

General practitioners are the foundation of the healthcare system, managing a broad spectrum of conditions that span every age group, organ system, and stage of life. From preventive care and chronic disease management to acute illness treatment and patient education, general practice clinicians must stay current with evolving medical knowledge, treatment standards, and screening recommendations.

Each course is developed in partnership with accredited continuing medical education providers, ensuring clinical accuracy, relevance, and alignment with national guidelines. Whether you’re managing hypertension and diabetes, conducting routine wellness visits, or diagnosing infections and dermatologic conditions, these CME activities offer practical, real-world knowledge applicable to daily clinical workflows. The courses are particularly valuable for clinicians working in outpatient primary care, urgent care, community health, and family practice settings.

Available on demand, these CME courses allow clinicians to complete modules at their own pace, from any location. After a short post-test, participants can instantly download their CME or CE certificate—streamlining the process of meeting state licensure requirements, board recertification, and professional development goals.

FreeCME’s general practice curriculum covers a wide range of essential topics, including:

• Preventive care and screening, including immunizations, cancer screening, and age-specific checkups

• Chronic disease management, such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and COPD

• Acute illness and symptom evaluation, including infections, headaches, abdominal pain, and musculoskeletal issues

• Behavioral and mental health, including depression, anxiety, substance use, and sleep disorders

• Pharmacologic updates, covering new therapies, polypharmacy concerns, and safe prescribing practices

• Men’s and women’s health, including reproductive care, menopause management, and prostate health

• Geriatric and pediatric care, with age-appropriate approaches to common and complex conditions

These CME activities are designed to support the broad and varied scope of general practice. They are useful for general practitioners as well as NPs and PAs who care for patients across the lifespan in diverse clinical environments. Many courses reflect updates from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and leading specialty organizations to help clinicians align with current evidence-based standards.
