Live competency check-offs
Native Daily / LiveKit sessions for skills check-offs (CPR, BLS, ACLS, IV insertion). Attendance auto-captures per session. Recordings land in the course library so a missed cohort can self-serve.
LMS for healthcare
The LMS that runs CPR recerts, OSHA training, and EMR onboarding in one workspace
HealthStream and Relias sell to hospital systems on multi-year contracts. Independent clinics, urgent-care groups, and home-health agencies live in the gap — running annual competencies out of spreadsheets and a Zoom link. Classentra is the live + blended LMS for the clinical org that wants recertifications tracked, certificates verifiable, and HIPAA mode available without a six-month implementation partner.
Built for orgs 50+ users
Corporate L&D pricing starts on the Team tier ($2,400/yr for up to 50 seats). For deployments over 250 seats, SSO, SCIM, SCORM ingest, or audit-log export — talk to sales before rolling out. Org-tier billing is annual + seat-based.
What clinical L&D deals with
Built for hospital systems; sold to nobody else
HealthStream, Relias, and Cornerstone OnDemand priced for the 5,000-employee hospital system. The contract assumes a CLO, a compliance officer, and a quarterly procurement cycle. A 40-clinician urgent-care group or a 120-aide home-health agency can't buy through that door — the sales call dies on the second question.
The fallback is a Drive folder, a SharePoint site, and a recurring Calendly link. Annual CPR recerts get tracked on a spreadsheet. OSHA bloodborne-pathogen training is a 30-minute Zoom plus a PDF sign-off. The compliance officer finds out something lapsed when a surveyor asks.
Classentra is the LMS half of the clinical training stack — done well, sold publicly, setup in days. Run live CPR sessions with attendance auto-captured, issue verifiable certificates per recertification, and keep your annual OSHA / HIPAA / bloodborne-pathogen training in one workspace that any surveyor can read.
What you get
Six capabilities clinical orgs actually need
Every feature below ships today. HIPAA mode (BAA + audit logs + access controls), SCORM-1.2 ingest, and SCIM provisioning are Company-tier add-ons — talk to sales for the regulated configuration.
Recertification tracking
Per-staff certification expiry dates with auto-reminders 60/30/7 days out. Reports export to PDF or CSV for the compliance binder. Mastery view per competency makes a surveyor visit a 10-minute conversation.
Certificates w/ public verification
Issue branded certificates per recert with a public verification URL per staff member. Auditors, surveyors, and onboarding HR at the next employer verify in one click — no PDF authenticity questions.
OSHA + bloodborne + EMR library
Build a reusable annual-training library: OSHA bloodborne pathogens, HIPAA refresher, fire safety, EMR module onboarding (Epic, Cerner, Athena). Assign by role; drip on hire date; resurrect on anniversary.
Role-based assignments
Assign training to roles (RN, LPN, CNA, MA, front-desk, billing) instead of one-by-one. New hires inherit the role checklist automatically. Role changes re-fire only the deltas, not the whole onboarding.
HIPAA mode + BAA on Company tier
Company tier signs a HIPAA-compliant BAA, enables audit logs on PHI-adjacent surfaces, and gates AI features on PHI inputs. Most clinical training (recerts, OSHA, soft-skill) doesn't touch PHI and runs fine on Team tier — talk to sales for the right configuration.

FAQ
Common questions from clinical L&D
- Are you HIPAA compliant? Do you sign a BAA?
- HIPAA mode is a Company-tier add-on. We sign a HIPAA-compliant BAA, enable audit logs on PHI-adjacent surfaces, and gate AI features on PHI inputs. Most clinical training (annual recerts, OSHA, soft-skill, EMR module onboarding) does not touch PHI and runs fine on Team tier — talk to sales before any course that ingests PHI so we can stand up the right configuration.
- Can you track CPR / BLS / ACLS recertifications with expiry dates?
- Yes. Per-staff certification records with expiry dates, auto-reminders 60/30/7 days out, role-based assignment, and PDF/CSV export for the compliance binder. Surveyor-readable. Most home-health and urgent-care groups onboard their full annual-training calendar in a week.
- Do you support OSHA and bloodborne-pathogen annual training?
- Build the course once in the library, assign by role, drip on hire date, and resurrect on the anniversary. Certificates with public verification URLs satisfy surveyor + state-board verification. The annual-training catalog is reusable across locations.
- How is this different from HealthStream or Relias?
- HealthStream and Relias are designed for hospital systems. Public pricing is gated behind a sales call, setup runs a quarter, and the contract assumes a CLO. Classentra is designed for the independent clinic, urgent-care group, or home-health agency: public pricing, setup in days, live + blended natively, and a real LMS without a six-month rollout. If you are buying for thousands of staff across a hospital system, HealthStream may still be the right call.
- Can we ingest SCORM courses we already own?
- SCORM-1.2 ingest is a Company-tier add-on. Most clinical orgs we onboard prefer to rebuild a few high-impact courses (CPR + OSHA + HIPAA refresher) inside Classentra so the live-session + auto-attendance + certificate flow works end-to-end. SCORM ingest is available for legacy compliance libraries you can't rebuild.
- Can EMR onboarding (Epic, Cerner, Athena) run on Classentra?
- Yes for the training half — module walkthroughs, screen-recording reviews, role-based assignment, knowledge checks, and a certificate per completed module. The EMR vendor still owns the actual EMR access provisioning. Classentra handles the training, tracking, and verification.
