Do you know your CME requirement?

We often remember we need to have 90 CME points for a three-year CME cycle. Some of us may think that it is all that is required.

In fact, a fellow is required to gather 30 points from Category A activities, namely the local, regional and international educational activities every three years One is also required to accumulate 15 active CME points from any category. Active points are gained by giving talks, doing quizzes from journals, self-study and teaching etc. For some categories there is a maximum number of points you can gain each cycle.

If you want to know more, please visit the CME Guidelines (http://www.paediatrician.org.hk/index.php?option=com_docman&task=doc_view&gid=2258&Itemid=66) page.

(The information below is abstracted from the event organizers on 30 October 2023. Members and fellows are reminded to contact the enquiries listed below for last-minute alternations. You may also login to our College website to check for the up-to-date version.)
