Journal-Based CME Activities
A journal-based CME/CE activity is an activity that is planned and presented by an accredited provider and in which the learner reads one or more articles (or adapted formats for special needs) from a peer-reviewed professional journal.
When reporting journal-based activities in PARS, the accredited provider may choose to report journal-based CME activities as a single activity per journal or as individual articles. The number of learners should equal the total number of individuals who completed the activity.
For example, a provider produces a journal that contains an article that is associated with an activity. Twenty learners read the article, reflect on the content, and complete questions related to the content of the article. In PARS, the provider would report this as a journal-based activity with 20 learners.
