Accreditation

ECNP's independent Scientific Programme Committee (SPC) composes the programme of the 28th ECNP Congress with the intention of providing participants with high-quality, balanced and educational content across the field of applied and translational neuroscience.

ECNP has taken great care to respond to the need of physicians to participate in continuing medical education (CME) programmes recognised by the European Union and their home countries. The programme of the 28th ECNP Congress is accordingly fully accredited by the relevant accrediting agencies.

The latest review of this material was February 2015.

Scientific programme

European CME credits
The European Accreditation Committee in CNS (EACIC) has granted a total of 29 CME credits to the 28th ECNP Congress, for Saturday-Tuesday:

US CME credits
The CME Institute of Physicians Postgraduate Press, Inc. is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
The scientific programme of the 28th ECNP Congress is eligible for a maximum of 29 AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM.

Satellite symposia

ECNP requires that all organisers of satellite symposia at the congress obtain accreditation for European CME. Each satellite symposium has been granted accreditation for two European CME credits by EACIC.
