In order to qualify for these credits, you should complete an evaluation form for every session that you attend during the Congress.
Specific evaluation forms will be provided at instructional courses, surgical skills training courses and other key sessions, and should be returned
immediately after the course or session ends.

For other sessions, CME forms will be available at the entrances to the lecture theatres.

You should complete a form for each session you attend and return the forms together to the Registration Desk when you collect your certificate

Information about the CME Credits

The XXVI Congress of the ESCRS is accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME) to provide CME activity for medical specialists.The EACCME is an institution of the European Union of Medical Specialists (UEMS), www.uems.net.

When awarding the maximum number of credits to an event, the EACCME considers the duration of the Congress, the scope of the scientific programme and the total amount of time any person may realistically be expected to be engaged in productive educational activity over the period of the Congress.

Each medical specialist should claim only those hours of credit that he/she actually spent in the educational activity. Each delegate should contact his national CME body directly in order to claim his credits for this Congress.

EACCME credits are recognised by the American Medical Association towards the Physician's Recognition Award (PRA). To convert EACCME credit to AMA PRA category 1 credit, contact the AMA.
