A cooperation agreement has been signed with the UEMS/EACCME. Under the terms of this agreement, all applications in the field of Pneumology will be evaluated by EBAP. EBAP will review the quality and independence of the CME events or products.

In this evaluation process, EBAP will work according to EACCME rules and will liaise with the UEMS/EACCME office for submission of the accreditation requests to the relevant National Accreditation Authority in order to obtain their recognition of the European Accreditation. Therefore, in addition to the EBAP administrative and accreditation fees, Providers will also be invoiced by EBAP for the EACCME fees as specified in its sliding scale. EBAP will remit the EACCME fee to the EACCME office who will undertake to forward one half to the relevant National Accreditation Authority.

It is first necessary to register as a CME provider in order to be able to apply for accreditation of an event. This is only done once. To register as a new provider, please fill in the Provider Registration Form.

EACCME Compulsory Forms
