Continuing Education
Please continue to monitor this page for updates.
Continuing education is a cornerstone of The Commission’s Virtual Symposium, and we know it’s an important factor in your decision to join us. Each year after the program is set, The Commission® staff works with accrediting bodies to determine the number of continuing education hours that are approved for offering. These numbers may change from year to year based on each accrediting body's requirements. The number of CE approved for The Commission's Virtual Symposium may also vary by credit type.

Attendees can earn up to twelve (12) continuing education credits by attending ALL live sessions and can earn up to an additional eight (8) continuing education credits by accessing the session recordings post-event.
- Up to six (6) CCM and/or CDMS Ethics credits can be earned when attending the live sessions.
