Continuing Medical Education
(CME)
Overview
​​
The PALISI Network is committed to supporting the professional development of pediatric critical care clinicians and researchers. PALISI applies for CME through the Michigan State Medical Society for each of our meetings. An application is submitted for every individual meeting; therefore, CME is not guaranteed until the application is approved for that specific event.
​
Updates regarding CME status will be posted on the PALISI website and communicated through official meeting communications, including registration emails, meeting programs, and on-site materials.
​
If you are attending a PALISI meeting specifically to obtain CME credit, please check the meeting page and your registration materials for the most current information about approval status, credit hours, and instructions for claiming credit.
