Credit options

Category 1 through a session’s accredited provider, where offered.

Category 2 self-claimed by eligible physicians for qualifying learning.

It depends on the session. A presentation or journal module offers AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ only where its accredited provider offers a CME activity and supplies instructions for claiming it; then you claim it as that provider directs. That credit comes from the provider, not from Shift CME, and not every session offers it. Physicians may also self-claim AMA PRA Category 2 Credit™ for learning they judge meets the AMA's requirements, and your Shift CME records can support that claim. Nurse practitioners and physician assistants follow their own certifying bodies' rules: NCCPA lets PAs self-claim Category 2 CME, while AANPCB and ANCC require accredited contact hours, which Shift CME does not award.

Where to stay in Jackson Hole

From the wildlife art museum and the winter elk refuge to the aerial tram at Teton Village, choose the Jackson Hole afternoon that suits you after study.

Town of Jackson
Jackson Hole Mountain Resort’s lodging page lists stays in downtown Jackson. Choose this area for a town base; the wildlife art museum and the elk refuge visitor center both have Jackson addresses.
Teton Village
Jackson Hole Mountain Resort’s lodging page lists stays in Teton Village, where the START bus runs to and from Jackson. Choose this area if the aerial tram is your afternoon outing.
Afternoons, travel and weather in Jackson Hole

Winter days are sunny between storms and the nights are very cold, summer days are warm with frequent afternoon thunderstorms, and the first heavy snows usually arrive by November 1. Conferences are available all year.

Jackson Hole after your study day

Study days finish at 2:00 PM local time. For an easy afternoon, choose one outing near your study setting: the National Museum of Wildlife Art on Rungius Road, a horse-drawn sleigh ride at the National Elk Refuge in winter, or the aerial tram at Teton Village. Leave time for conditions on the road. The National Park Service notes that winter blizzards can close roads and recommends four-wheel drive, all-wheel drive or all-weather tires.

Travel, accommodation and any tickets are arranged separately. Your conference is built around your specialty and interests; Jackson Hole is the setting you choose for it.

A wildlife art afternoon

The National Museum of Wildlife Art describes itself as the nation’s only museum devoted solely to wildlife art, with works depicting wild animals from around the world. It is closed on Mondays, so check its current schedule against your 2:00 PM finish before you plan around it.

Outside the building, the Sculpture Trail places life-size wildlife sculptures in the Jackson Hole landscape. Landscape architect Walter Hood designed it, and the museum says it lets visitors experience wildlife sculpture in a natural setting. Dress for the weather if you walk it.

The elk refuge in winter

The National Elk Refuge, run by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, protects more than 24,700 acres of grassland and wetland as winter habitat for elk, bison and wolves. It was established in 1912. Elk are typically visible from mid-December through early April, when deep snow pushes them down to lower elevations.

The chamber of commerce says horse-drawn sleigh rides began in 1965. The time on the sleigh is roughly 45 to 60 minutes, the rides run in all weather, and blankets are not provided, so bring your own and dress warmly. Tickets are sold in the parking lot of the National Elk Refuge and Greater Yellowstone Visitor Center on North Cache Street, and reservations are by phone. Confirm the current season and schedule before you plan around a ride.

Teton Village and the tram

Jackson Hole Mountain Resort describes its aerial tram, nicknamed Big Red, as carrying up to 100 people 4,139 vertical feet up Rendezvous Mountain in about nine minutes. The summit offers 360-degree views of the Tetons and the valley. The resort’s page does not say whether the tram runs in summer, so check with the resort before you count on it.

The Jackson Hole Traveler guide says the START bus runs between the town of Jackson and Teton Village throughout the day, and that it drops riders near the tram dock. The chamber of commerce lists Snow King Mountain Resort for downhill skiing and family tubing and highlights concerts on its summit stage; check what is running when you visit.

Beyond the lifts, in any season

Jackson Hole is known for skiing, but the chamber of commerce also lists snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, sleigh rides and snowmobiling for winter. The Jackson Hole Traveler guide adds dog sledding and wildlife tours to its activity list, so a winter afternoon does not have to mean a lift ticket.

For warmer months the same guide lists float trips, rafting and fly fishing, and the chamber lists Astoria Hot Springs and Park as a hot springs destination. Book guided trips ahead where the operator asks you to, and compare their schedules with your 2:00 PM finish before you commit to one.

Grand Teton National Park next door

Jackson Hole Airport sits inside Grand Teton National Park, and the park is built around the Teton Range, its lakes and its wildlife. In summer the park suggests paddling on Jenny, String, Leigh or Jackson Lake. Spring brings wildflowers as the valley warms, fall brings golden aspen leaves and elk bugling, and winter is a popular time for cross-country skiing.

Campgrounds in the park require reservations, and the park’s What’s Open Today page lists operating dates for visitor centers, lodges and services. Check it before you drive in, because services change with the season.

When to visit Jackson Hole

The National Park Service describes four distinct seasons. Winter, from December to mid-April, brings often sunny days but very cold nights, with sub-zero temperatures common. Spring, from mid-April through June, alternates mild days and cool nights with rain and snow; valley trails are usually snow-covered until late May, and mountain snow often lingers until mid-July.

July and August have warm days, cool nights and frequent afternoon thunderstorms, and the park recommends raingear. September through November alternates sunny days with cold nights, rain and occasional snowstorms, and the first heavy snows typically arrive by November 1. Because nights stay cold in most seasons, pack layers and check the local forecast before you plan outdoor time.

Getting to Jackson Hole and your study setting

Jackson Hole Airport (JAC) is the arrival point shown in this guide. The airport’s own site says it is located within Grand Teton National Park, in Jackson, Wyoming, and the Jackson Hole Traveler guide says rental cars are available at the airport and in town, with taxis and local transport also listed. Choose your accommodation with both your study setting and your plans outside study hours in mind.

The map shows straight-line distances from Shift’s designated center. These are orientation distances, not driving distances or travel-time estimates. Check your exact address against the conference’s check-in area before booking.

FAQ

How does a conference work?

Choose your destination, dates and specialty. Your program includes journal modules and scheduled presentations. Presentations start at their scheduled times, rather than on demand. Review the program before you confirm. See each step.

Why do I need to be at the destination?

Shift CME licenses educational content for live conferences at designated destinations. Those licenses restrict use to the conference location, so you need to be at your selected destination to participate. Presentations start at their scheduled times as part of your personalized program.

Where do I need to check in?

Select a destination from the destinations page. Check in once during your conference, within 20 miles of the destination’s designated center. Check-in is open from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM destination time on any study day. If you haven’t checked in by 10:00 PM on your last study day, no participation is recorded. Enable browser location access; if your phone can’t confirm your location, you can confirm it yourself when you check in.

How long is a study day?

Study days run from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM local time, with presentations starting at scheduled times. That leaves the rest of the day to enjoy your destination.

What does it cost?

Membership is $999 a year (introductory price), plus applicable tax, and renews at $999 a year until you cancel. It includes 21 conference days a year. Each conference uses 1 to 7 conference days. Members can add days for $40 each. Without a membership, one conference of up to 7 study days is $349, paid before you create it. Read about membership.

Can I change a confirmed conference?

Before you confirm, you can swap or remove sessions, or regenerate the plan. Choosing Confirm and lock itinerary locks the program. To change it after that, cancel the conference and plan a new one. Cancelled or incomplete confirmed conferences keep their confirmation.
