Welcome to Vital U

Vital U provides access to education and supporting materials using a Learning Management System (LMS). Your access to specific courses and materials in the system is determined by your organization’s Maintenance and Support status, how your organization is using its Education Units, and other factors. If you would like access to items that are not available, please contact our Vital U Education Coordinator at 952.487.9559 or e-mail vitalu@vitalueducation.com.
