SVU’s Continuing Medical Education (CME) Subcommittee oversees the evaluation and approval process for the SVU-CME program and applies continuous improvement practices to restructuring the application and the review process. This latest SVU-CME Information Kit and Application is the result of SVU’s efforts to create a simplified and concise application process. We hope that this will lead to increased numbers of SVU-CME programs being offered nationwide.

Thanks to all of the SVU members who contributed to the development of this project.
