What Global Education Group Inc. does

Global Education Group, Inc. is a Tampa, Florida-based continuing medical education (CME) provider that partners with medical education companies, healthcare organizations, and pharmaceutical/medical device funders to accredit, fund, and measure educational programs for healthcare professionals. The company holds ACCME Accreditation with Commendation (through July 31, 2026), ACPE Accreditation with Commendation (through January 31, 2028), ANCC Accreditation with Distinction (through November 30, 2024), and PACE Program Provider status, making it the first Medical Education Communications Company to receive commendation across three major accreditation boards. Its core service offerings include CME Joint Providership (certifying programs for CME credit), Grant Strategy and Funding Support (connecting education partners with over 70 pharmaceutical and medical device funders), and proprietary outcomes measurement through Global Inferential Outcomes and Physician OnSight systems, the latter validated to reach Moore's Levels 5 & 6 — the highest tier of educational outcomes measurement.

The company's underlying technology stack centers on proprietary outcomes measurement architecture developed in collaboration with academic centers, including pre/post-tests, follow-up surveys, and control group methodologies, supported by in-house biostatisticians and AMWA-certified medical writers. Supporting intellectual property includes the annual CME Value Survey (conducted since 2016), ACCME Annual Report analyses, a Grant Approval and Profitability Scale, monthly Industry Insights Reports, and the Global Guide digital reference compendium (currently Version 5). The business operates a relationship-based, sales-led B2B go-to-motion with no self-serve or direct-to-consumer distribution; new partnerships are initiated through direct outreach to the General Manager or a New Partner Business Development Form.

Global generates revenue through professional services fees for joint providership certifications, grant funding facilitation, outcomes measurement engagements, and proprietary research products. Pricing is quote-based and tailored to each partnership with multi-year contract cadences; no public pricing tiers exist. The company became a member of Vocate Education Solutions in January 2026, which serves as a shared services parent alongside Ultimate Medical Academy, Nasium Training, and American Institute, providing strategic and legal home infrastructure while Global maintains operational autonomy. The named team is small (approximately five professionals including General Manager Andrea Funk, Senior Grant Manager Kerinsa Mullins, and Program Manager Lauren Sinclair), indicating a lean operating model relative to the enterprise client portfolio served.

• AKH Inc. (Advancing Knowledge in Healthcare): AKH is an accredited joint provider of CE/CME for physicians, pharmacists, and nurses, offering joint providership, outcomes measurement, and grant support - the same core service bundle Global Education Group provides.
