Anybody have any online CE recommendations? Free, preferably, but I'd pay for good ones, say, on poly-trauma.

I don't know where you're located so this may or may not apply, but I've used MedicEd.com in the past. It's got some decent info and a fair selection of courses. Be warned though, in actuality a 3 credit-hour course may take you 20 minutes to complete, but you won't be able to open another for the full 3 hours. I thought I was going to get all of my con-ed done in a day...not so.
 
It's difficult to get something for nothing... so don't expect much free online con-ed. If memory serves me well, I think medic-ce has a free class from medic alert, and Online NEMSA has a free course on sports injuries...

Good Luck!
 
The other thing to remember is that you may not be able to get all of your CE by online classes. Depends on your state: and if I remember NREMT only allows like 20% to be online CE's
 
I checked out the Boundtree and it looked like some pretty decent CEU's.

Honestly not a huge fan of MedicEd. Used it once, probably won't use it again.
 
I've used emcert.com before, they have a recert class and if I remember right you can do it for 50% of your CE's for national. It's not bad, a bit dry but I think ALL online CEs are dry especially if you hate learning from a book (or in this case webpage). Other than that no complaints at all about it.
 
I've used medicEd before and after the time restrictions went into place. It's a decent site for what you pay.
