Our Leadership
Pamela Arn, MD
Executive Director, Education
Welcome
Welcome to the Nemours Children's Continuing Medical Education page. We hope you find what you are looking for, whether it is a conference to attend, a schedule of events or online continuing medical education.
When we started publishing online CME content in the late 90s, the concept was new. Now, however, online content for CME is no longer novel. There are multiple sites and multiple ways to obtain CME. Why then, do we continue our site?
Our reasons are simple. We believe that high-quality, unbiased pediatric medical education should be accessible to all. Nemours funds our efforts, and almost none of our content is paid for by pharmaceutical grants or outside funding. We pledge to have high-quality lectures that are focused on problems that are pertinent and important in pediatric care. Please let us know if there are topics you would like to hear about or feedback that can help us help you and your patients.

Activity Check-In Instructions
How can faculty claim credit for a lecture?
The Continuing Medical Education Office does not offer this type of credit, but you can apply directly to the AMA for this credit type (teaching at a live activity). It is two credits per hour of presentation time. Your application must include a copy of the brochure. Please note there is a cost for this process.
Here is the link to the application through AMA.
How do I get CME for my educational event?

How do I get MOC points for my educational event?
Nemours can offer American Board of Pediatrics Lifelong Learning and Self-Assessment, MOC Part II points in conjunction with accredited CME activities. The activity must include a comprehensive evaluation and self-assessment that meets ABP guidelines. If a CME activity is approved for MOC Part II points, instructions for earning MOC Part II points and an accreditation statement will appear in program materials. If you would like to learn more about how to design and accredit an activity which offers both CME and MOC Part II points, please contact your local CME office.
Nemours is an American Board of Pediatrics portfolio sponsor for Part IV.
CE Broker
Do you report my credits to CE Broker directly?
Effective September 2019, The Nemours Children’s Health System became an approved provider by the Florida Board of Medicine. This means that we directly report AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ earned by physicians for our Nemours accredited activities to CE Broker.
The Office of CME uploaded all physician license data into our learning management system, CME Tracker. We have established a process with the Office of Medical and Professional Staff Services to upload Florida license data for newly appointed Nemours physicians.
What if I don't see all my credits in CE Broker?
Please contact Evelyn Crenshaw with questions regarding any issues with Nemours accredited activities not showing up in CE Broker.
