CME CREDITS

We are pleased to inform you that the EAACI will offer Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits for the Congress. The aim of a CME system is to assure a high level of theoretic and clinical competences throughout the working life of medical specialists. The EAACI CME Accreditation Committee guarantees that the CME programmes are of a high scientific and educational standard in agreement with the European and American CME systems.

There is currently no harmonized CME system in Europe. The EAACI CME Accreditation Committee has applied to the European Accreditation Council for CME (EACCME) for the recognition of European CME credits. EACCME Credits will be available to US Doctors attending the EAACI 2010, due to a reciprocal agreement signed by the American Medical Association (AMA) and the European Union of Medical Specialists (UEMS). Each medical specialist should claim the recognition of the EAACI/EACCME Credits to his/her own CME National Authority.

The number of CME credits that will be assigned to the EAACI 2010 Congress in London will be announced on the congress website, www.eaaci2010.com, prior to the event.
Information and instructions on how to apply for CME credits will be included in the congress bag.
