Fostering Excellence Among Healthcare Professionals
The CME program fosters excellence in pediatric care through its diverse educational activities. Activities focus on prevention, treatment, diagnosis, emerging technologies and procedures in pediatrics, pharmacotherapy, and practice-related needs, and are designed to improve the pediatric knowledge, attitudes, and skills of physicians and healthcare professionals who care for children.
Specific CME activities include, but are not limited to, single and multi-day conferences, community rounds and maternal newborn transport reviews. Most activities are presented in traditional lecture and case-based formats. However, the program encourages diverse presentation formats to achieve activity objectives.
