  • CME Reporting

  • The American Academy of Ophthalmology is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

    Claim CME

    The deadline to claim CME credits for the 2023 annual meeting and Subspecialty Day was March 29.

    Academy Members

    CME transcripts that include AAOE Half-Day Coding Sessions, Subspecialty Day and/or AAO 2023 credits are available to Academy members through the Academy’s CME Central web page.

    The Academy transcript cannot list individual course attendance. It will list only the overall credits claimed for educational activities at AAOE Half-Day Coding Sessions, Subspecialty Day and/or AAO 2023.

    Nonmembers

    The Academy provides nonmembers with verification of credits earned and reported for a single Academy-sponsored CME activity. When you can claimed CME credits and completed the evaluation a certificate/proof of attendance was emailed to you. 

    Proof of Attendance

    You can use the CME credit reporting/ proof-of-attendance letter that is generated when you claim CME for reimbursement or hospital privileges, or for nonmembers who need it to report CME credit.

    If you do not need to claim CME, you can generate just a certificate of attendance.
