Built and grew a CE business for nurse practitioners that made him financially independent. Now he teaches his proprietary process.
Your profession already invests in continuing education,
so why not be the one who provides it?
Healthcare professionals are required to obtain continuing education so they can learn throughout their careers – to stay current, develop new skills, solve problems formal training leaves behind, and to meet licensing and board requirements. ProCourseStart teaches you to turn your expertise and knowledge into an in-demand continuing education business.
The gap
02Broad education leaves specific problems unsolved.
No degree or conference can address every specialty, setting, and real-world problem. Practical questions remain after broad education ends.
The edge
03You understand those problems from inside the profession.
You know the challenges your colleagues face beyond the textbook. That real-world judgment can make your teaching unusually useful.
Your second education
You don’t need to know everything. You need something specific you can teach well.
Every healthcare career contains two educations. The first is formal—degrees, textbooks, licenses. The second comes from doing the work: the judgment calls and real-world decisions that built your competency.
The textbook teaches you the theory.
You know how to turn theory into the art of practice.
Clinical training covers the textbook way.
You know how clinical practice works in the real world.
Somewhere in that second education is a focused problem you’re genuinely equipped to teach.
Your job is to choose one problem, develop a solution, define who it helps, and then begin building your course and continuing education business. This is what ProCourseStart helps you do with precision.
Okay — but who’d actually pay for it?”
Not everyone—and that is the point. You don’t need a mass audience. For a focused, well-priced offer, about a hundred of the right people can be enough to build a profitable business.
Official CE credit can strengthen the offer, but it isn’t required to start. You can begin with it or without it.
Not every idea should become a business—and you don’t need every idea. You need one: a specific problem you understand, for an audience you already know.

Justin walks through ProCourseStart, what it teaches, and how it helps you move from a problem you know firsthand to a continuing education business of your own.
A course is only the product. ProCourseStart helps you build the course and the business around it so it can succeed.
01
Define the value
Identify a real problem in your profession worth solving. Shape the audience, value proposition, and flagship course idea before production begins.
02
Build the flagship
Develop the course and learning assets your customers need, then prepare them for delivery. Start with one course that delivers a clear outcome.
03
Build the business
Put the brand, website, content, email, and marketing systems around the course so you are building a company—not a one-off product.
04
Launch with a plan
Build an audience and trust through useful content, establish proven marketing strategies, and take the course to market with a defined launch plan.
05
Grow what works
Listen to customers, publish useful content consistently, expand the product line, and build the audience and systems that make the business durable.

Justin Allan, NP · Founder
I built a successful eight-figure continuing education business myself.
ProCourseStart is the process I wish I’d had when I started.
I grew up in poverty in rural Tennessee and sometimes did not have running water in high school.
I became a nurse practitioner, but after five years of practice I realized clinical work would always place limits on my income, time, and options. So I built The Elite Nurse Practitioner, an online continuing education business. For almost three years, I ran it largely by myself and grew it into an eight-figure business that allowed me to become financially independent at 39.
ProCourseStart distills the decisions, mistakes, failures, and lessons into the process I would follow if I were starting again. — Justin

About the process, the program, and what happens next.
ProCourseStart is for healthcare professionals who want to solve meaningful problems within their profession through continuing education and build a business using a proven model. It is also for professionals who want to create a partially passive income stream that is less directly tied to every hour they work.
That is common at the beginning. Ask what specific clinical, business, or professional-development problem you solve unusually well. What do colleagues ask you about repeatedly? What do you know so thoroughly that you may underestimate its value? ProCourseStart helps you turn those answers into a focused course idea.
No. You do not need to be a developer or a technical specialist. The guidance inside ProCourseStart is designed to make course hosting, email, websites, funnels, and the larger business system approachable—including practical ways to use AI throughout the build.
No. You can begin with an unaccredited professional course or add recognized continuing education credits or hours. Through the Pinnacle partner path, ProCourseStart members can pursue AMA, ANCC, ACPE, AAPA, ASWB, APA, COPE, CDR, ADA, BOC, and IPCE credit types—coverage that reaches 90% of healthcare professionals. If your profession is not represented, direct accreditation remains an alternative.
Plan on approximately 10 focused hours per week and roughly 12 weeks to complete the initial course and business build alongside full-time work. After launch, expect approximately 10 hours per week to operate the business, including customer support, content, and marketing.
No. ProCourseStart gives you a proven process for choosing, validating, building, and selling a course while building the business around it correctly. Results depend on the idea, audience, execution, market, and work you put into it.
You will speak with a member of the ProCourseStart team about your professional background, course ideas, needs, and goals. The conversation helps both sides determine whether the Mastermind is the right level of support for where you are now.
