A webinar entitled “The Current State of International CME Regulations Top of Form” will take place on Sep 9, 2008, at 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM EDT.
Webinar Overview
There is no consistency in how continuing medical education is regulated around the world. Even in Europe, the rules are different from country to country – in some nations mandatory, in others voluntary. In some nations, the government regulates CME, in others, the profession. In some countries web-based CME is eligible for credit, in others not. And the rules on commercial support differ as well. In this hour, we will review significant regulations – and proposed changes – in Europe. We will also give a brief overview of CME regulation in the rest of the world.
Highlights Include:
* How mandatory CME is enforced in European countries
* The interaction between the European Accreditation Commission for CME and the National Authorities
* Where eCME is acceptable for credit
* What the rules are for commercial support
* 2 countries where pharmaceutical promotion is permitted in the midst of accredited CME!
