“The 35th ESCMID Global (Congress of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases ), Vienna, Austria 12/04/2025 - 15/04/2025, has been accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME®) with 28.0 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. You can find information on the EACCME® to AMA credit conversion process here.
“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.”
Each participant should claim only those hours of credit that they actually spent in the educational activity.
The EACCME® awards ECMEC®s on the basis of 0.5 ECMEC® for 30 minutes of CME with a maximum of 7 ECMEC®s per day. cf. Chapter XIII of UEMS 2023.07.
People viewing the recordings during the six-month period after the event has taken place are entitled to CME credits, in the same way as the participants to the live event.
The credits are granted, as for the live event, on the basis of actual “participation”, i.e. how many hours of CME the participants have viewed.
The maximum number of credits granted for watching the recordings will be the same as for the live event and cannot exceed this number whatever the number of sessions attended or viewed. A participant may not obtain credits for participating at the live event and watching the same sessions as recordings.
Please note: There are no CME credits granted for sessions taking place on Friday 11th April 2025. CME Points can only be collected as of Saturday, 12th April 2025, according to the credit breakdown above.
In accordance with CME/CPD accreditation criteria and standards for commercial support to ensure balance, independence, objectivity, and scientific rigour, those in control of the educational content must disclose potential or actual conflicts of interest. Disclosure information is evaluated and conflicts of interest resolved. Disclosure is made to participants prior to the activity. Participants will be asked on the evaluation to assess the objectivity and independence of the event.
For CME Certificates participants need to connect to the CME Platform and log in with their ESCMID account. The points of the sessions need to be claimed individually, and a general survey needs to be filled out. The survey will open on Tuesday, 14 April 2025 and close on 15 October 2025.
