CME Accreditation

Accredited Continuing Medical Education (CME) is an essential component of continuing physician professional development. Accreditation is of utmost importance - both as proof of the top quality of the congress's scientific content and as an opportunity for delegates to collect their CME credit points.

LIVES Digital programme has been granted 15 European CME credits (ECMEC®s) by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME®).

CME credits can be claimed for participation during the 4-DAY LIVE congress (03-06 October) and for the recorded sessions during or after these dates.

The EACCME accreditation for recorded sessions will be valid for a period of three months from the starting date of the event. After three months, viewers will not be entitled to receive EACCME credits anymore for viewing the recorded event.

Your certificate of attendance will be sent to you after the congress by email.

How does it work?

    • Delegates can exchange their EACCME credits for National CME credits in their home country;
    • Physicians may have their EACCME credits converted to AMA PRA Category 1 Credit by applying to the American Medical Association at www.ama-assn.org/go/cme.
