EACCME®/UEMS credits
The EAACI Congress 2024, Valencia, Spain 31/05/2024- 03/06/2024 has been accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME®) with 28.5 European CME credits (ECMEC®s).
From 17 June, 2024, participants will be able to download their EACCME®/UEMS credit certificates based on their attendance during the congress days (31 May – 03 June) only and upon filling in the feedback questionnaire directly from their account on the digital platform. Please be aware, that the EAACME®/UEMS certificate download function will close on 30 November 2024.
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.
