The Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) and Geisinger Continuing Education share the expectation that providers evaluate the impact of educational interventions on the learner's knowledge, strategies/skills, performance, and/or patient outcomes in order to award learners Maintenance of Certification (MOC), or Continuing Medical Education (CME) credit. After each activity, the learner MUST complete a comprehensive evaluation form. This Microsoft form is made available to learners by the activity planning team. This evaluation is separate from the overall course evaluation which is tied to the course. Learners who do not complete the form will not be eligible for Continuous Certification credit and will not be reported to the American Board of Surgery.
