Nursing professionals – CME Accreditation Statement

The activities below have been planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership of Medical Academy LLC and the Psychopharmacology Institute. Medical Academy LLC is accredited by the ACCME to provide AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ for physicians.

This CME program issues AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should claim only credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

The ANCC accepts AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™ as Contact Hours, under this calculation: 1 CME = 1 Contact Hour. 

All of our content is psychopharmacology, so the pharmacology hours shown on your certificate match the credits awarded for that activity. Your certificate states them on their own line, separately from the credit designation statement.

This applies to APRN pharmacology renewal as well. Boards of nursing define pharmacology CE in their own way, so please confirm with your board that this is the documentation they expect.

Physicians outside the United States – CME Accreditation Statement

AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ may be awarded to any physician, whether or not they are licensed in the United States. The requirements are the same.

The American Medical Association has an agreement of mutual recognition of Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits with the European Union of Medical Specialists (UEMS), the accreditation body for European countries. Physicians interested in converting AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ to UEMS-European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education CME credits (ECMEC®s) should contact the UEMS at mutualrecognition@uems.eu.

Whether these credits count toward your own national continuing education requirement is decided by your national medical chamber or society, and the rules differ from country to country. We recommend confirming with them before relying on the credits for a licensing or recertification requirement.
