I have applied for a job managing a CME program. I am well qualified in terms of planning events and arranging logistics and technology, and I have lots of computer skills that will apply to the data management and record keeping portions of the job.
What I don’t know is what makes one educational lecture worthy of CME credit and another not. I’ve seen promotional materials for packaged lectures that state they count as CME, which suggests that there is some governing body that makes such a judgement, either at a state or national level, or both. And I know that our doctors (I already work in the hospital where this position has opened up) do regular peer reviews on their cases which also count as CME. And I’m reasonably sure no one is subbmitting these case reviews to an outside governing body on a regular basis, so there must be some other route to getting approval for CMEs than by submitting a synopsis of a lecture.
Would I myself be the judge (or a judge) of whether something is “credit worthy”?
Oh, yes, and what questions am I failing to ask?
