Activity Hosting Process
- Review the procedural guidelines below for hosting a CME activity.
- Contact the Office of CME (OCME) to schedule an appointment. The OCME will set up a meeting to discuss your activity. If the activity meets all of the criteria you will be provided with an Activity Development Application.
- Complete the Activity Development Application, sign and submit it with all required documentation to the office of CME. (Original signatures are required) Incomplete applications will be returned.
Procedural Guidelines

- Activity applications should be submitted 6 to 9 months prior to the activity. Activities that begin in a shorter time frame than this may not be considered.
- A service fee will be collected upon approval of the application. Work will not begin on the activity until after payment is received. Please check the CME Fee schedule for an estimate on the CME service fee for your event.
- Applications will not be reviewed without a prior appointment. Completing an application does not guarantee your activity will be approved for CME credit.
