Are there ACCME requirements that a provider should pay special attention to when posting an activity on an online or social media platform?
Yes. These are found within Standards 2 and 5 of the ACCME’s Standards for Integrity and Independence. When posting an activity on an internet-based platform, you will want to ensure that:
- Learners do not encounter product-specific marketing while engaged in accredited education.
- Learners must be able to engage with the accredited education without having to click through, watch, listen to, or be presented with product promotion or product-specific advertisement.
- You have permission of the faculty to post their material on a platform.
- The identity and contact information of learners engaging with your accredited education is not tracked by, visible to, or shared with any ineligible company or its agents without the consent of the individual learner.
