CME Accreditation

The The Big Challenge – The War of the Noses – Closed vs Open Rhinoplasty, Gardone Riviera (BS), Italy, 21/09/2018-23/09/2018 has been accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME®) with 21 European CME credits (ECMEC®s). Each medical specialist should claim only those hours of credit that he/she actually spent in the educational activity.

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 www.ama-assn.org/education/earn-credit-participation-international-activities.

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.

The course obtained 25 ECM credits for the following professions: medical doctors specialized in plastic surgery, maxillo facial surgery, otorhinolaryngology and nurses.

ECM credits will be assigned by the Provider MZ Congressi to all those who have attended for a minimum of 90% of the educational hours.
Italian participants will need to sign in every day (21st, 22nd, 23th September), at the entrance and at the exit for ECM credits and must remember to hand in the personal information sheet, the evaluation form and the written test at the end of the meeting at the registration desk.
