ACHA’s Continuing Education Committee, chaired by Scott Henderson, MD (University of Missouri), took the reins on the upcoming Annual Meeting this month. The committee (made up of representatives for each credit discipline) reviewed all 150+ selected sessions in December and made their final credit decisions last week.

ACHA offers credit in the following disciplines:

  • CME for physicians and physician assistants
  • AAFP for family physicians
  • CNE for nurses and APNs
  • CHES and MCHES for certified health education specialists
  • PsyCE for psychologists
  • NBCC for certified counselors
  • NASW for licensed social workers
  • ACPE for pharmacists

Their goal of the committee is always to maximize the credit available to meeting attendees, based on their credit type’s specific criteria. Meeting attendees can expect 18-24 available credits, depending on their discipline.
