No worries, they don’t expire! Your unused credits will roll over to the next month.

If I cancel my subscription to ObGFirst, do I keep my earned credits?

Yes, you keep your earned credits. Also, if you have paid for Continuing Education, you can still take the post-tests and receive your credits – even after the subscription expires.
