Each medical specialist should claim only those hours of credit that they actually spent in the educational activity.
- Day 1, 20 November 2024: 6.5 credits
- Day 2, 21 November 2024: 7 credits
- Day 3, 22 November 2024: 6.5 credits
How to claim CME credits
To request the certificate and claim CME credits, ESCAIDE participants will need to attend the sessions during the conference days (online or in-person) and answer the end-of-conference feedback survey. The survey will be sent to participants by email and will be available on the Swapcard platform.
According to EACCME requirements, the attendance will be checked and a personalised certificate with the number of session hours attended during the conference days will then be sent to requesters via email.
Information for medical specialists from the US and Canada
Through an agreement between the Union Européenne des Médecins Spécialistes and the American Medical Association, physicians may convert EACCME® credits to an equivalent number of AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM. Information on the process to convert EACCME® credit to AMA credit can be found at https:/./edhub.ama-assn.org/pages/applications
Live educational activities, occurring outside of Canada, recognised by the UEMS-EACCME® for ECMEC®s are deemed to be Accredited Group Learning Activities (Section 1) as defined by the Maintenance of Certification Program of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.
