Continuing Medical Education Committee

The CME committee is charged with developing, planning, maintaining and evaluating education programs. These programs focus on emergency medicine and corresponding subspecialties on issues pertinent to the practice and delivery of health care. All learning experiences are designed with evidence-based research and measurable objectives, which are outlined by creating continual needs assessments and outcomes.  The primary role for this committee is to ensure the educational activities provided by ACOEP are on the cutting edge of emergency medicine.

ACOEP CME Mission Statement
