Step 2 - Scientific programme
Prepare the educational activity’s programme in such a way that the possible accompanying satellite sessions and/or
commercially sponsored social events would not interfere, nor compete with, the accredited CME programme.
Step 3 - Attendance Certificate
Deliver Attendance Certificates to participants at the end of the programme.
Each participant should obtain a unique and individual certificate to their name and claim only those hours of credit
that have actually been spent in the educational activity.

Step 4 - Evaluation of CME activity by participants
At the end of every activity participants should complete Evaluation Forms.
The results have to be transmitted to EBAC in the Report after the accredited CME activity.
Tip! Download a "EBAC Standard Evaluation Form"
Step 5 - Disclosure Form and compliance to the EBAC Disclosure Policy
Every member of the Faculty and Scientific Committee must complete and sign the EBAC Disclosure Form.
Signature of this document discloses the existence of any financial interest or other relationship a person, or the provider has
with the supporting company or any commercial products discussed during the CME course.
Additionally, potential relationships of faculty members or Provider with commercial supporters of the CME event should be disclosed to participants
prior to educational activities and briefly indicated in course materials such as brochures, syllabi, exhibits, poster-sessions and also in post-meeting publications (see "EBAC Disclosure Statement").
In case of existing conflicts of interest, they should be indicated to the audience before the activity and/or in the above mentioned materials.

Step 6 - EBAC Monitor – visiting the accredited CME event
Occasionally EBAC will be represented, at certain CME events, by a Monitor.
The CME Provider is expected to provide the Monitor with accommodation and other facilities, according to the standard service offered to participants.
Transport costs will be at the charge of the CME Provider, who will be informed of the Monitor’s presence in advance.
Step 7 - Report
EBAC requires the Provider of the accredited CME activity to prepare and send to EBAC a report concerning the activity. The content of the report is pre-defined.
Tip! Download the "EBAC Event Report template"
Step 8 - Participants List – European Accreditation Database
CME Providers of EBAC Accredited CME Activities will provide EBAC with a list of participants to their programme in excel format.
The list should contain the following information: EBAC Application Form ID, ESCID (optional), Date of Birth, Family Name, First Name, Number of CME Credits granted, Date of EBAC CME Certificate issued.
The information will be fed into the “European Accreditation database” and will enable doctors to keep track of their CME Activity online.
