All accredited providers within the ACCME System are required to use the Program and Activity Reporting System (PARS) to report information about their CME activities.
In addition, providers can use PARS to register their CME activities and report learner data for the Maintenance of Certification (MOC) programs of the American Board of Anesthesiology (ABA), American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM), American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery (ABOS), American Board of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery (ABOHNS), American Board of Pathology (ABPath), American Board of Pediatrics (ABP), American Board of Surgery (ABS), or American Board of Thoracic Surgery (ABTS).
Aside from using PARS via the web-interface, ACCME provides other options for submitting information into PARS. Providers can submit data via tab-delimited upload, XML batch upload, or using web services.
