The Office of Continuing Medical Education (OCME) headed by the Associate Dean of CME serves the College of Medicine (COM) faculty by taking the primary responsibility for maintaining the accreditation of the University of Arkansas College of Medicine (UAMS COM) granted by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME). This accreditation allows the College of Medicine to certify educational activities for AMA PRA credit. As an ACCME accredited sponsor of CME for physicians, the University of Arkansas College of Medicine through the Office of Continuing Medical Education must ensure that all its sponsored CME activities meet the ACCME's accreditation criteria for CME planning and design and follow the ACCME's Standards for Commercial Support. The OCME will approve and designate category 1 credit to educational activities that meet the specific criteria. The OCME may also jointly sponsor activities for CME credit with non-accredited health related organizations, medical associations or societies when a COM faculty member is involved. The OCME provides different levels of planning services from the very basic to full service meeting planning and management. Depending on your particular situation, you can contact the OCME and contract for whatever services that your educational activity requires. For a schedule of CME fees, click here.
