Join your colleagues at the Loews Chicago Hotel on August 26-27 for the ACCME Accreditation Workshop. The workshop is an essential professional development opportunity for those who are new to accredited continuing medical education (CME). Together we will explore the ACCME’s requirements and expectations for accreditation as well as how accredited CE can be a strategic tool for healthcare improvement.
The 2025 ACCME Accreditation Workshop will include:
- Face-to-face in-person engagement with colleagues, faculty mentors, and ACCME staff to develop strategies to advance your CE program.
- Access to approximately three hours of self-directed, online courses on ACCME accreditation concepts and requirements via ACCME Academy.
- Resources and strategies to support your educational program including resources to engage faculty, clinicians, and teams.
- In-depth exploration of the Standards for Integrity & Independence in Accredited Continuing Education, including an overview of how to meet the ACCME’s expectations and resources to support your implementation.
- Opportunities to strategize with colleagues and ACCME staff around timely topics such as engaging learners, addressing diversity, equity, and inclusion in CE, resources for faculty development, and incorporating CME that counts for Maintenance of Certification into your educational programming.
- Tools to help you position CE as a strategic asset in your organization.
