Independent accredited education, governed end to end

CineMed CE provides the accreditation governance that keeps professional education independent — planning, faculty selection, and content controlled by the accredited provider, with documentation built to withstand review.

The structural challenge for medical affairs teams

Independence has to be demonstrable

The education almost always is independent. Producing evidence of it, months or years later, is the harder requirement.

Internal teams hold external risk

Medical affairs carries compliance exposure that internal structures were not designed to govern.

Grant-supported activity multiplies requirements

Commercial support adds a second layer of documentation on top of the first, and it has to survive long after the activity closes.

The requirement isn't only that education is independent. It's that independence is demonstrable.

Under the ACCME Standards for Integrity and Independence, all decisions regarding planning, faculty selection, and educational content must be made independently of ineligible companies. That separation is not a constraint on the education — it is what makes the education credible to clinicians.

CineMed CE is the accredited provider that holds that governance. We control content decisions, manage disclosure and mitigation, administer commercial support under Standard 4, and maintain the documentation that evidences independence. Your teams support education that addresses identified care gaps; the structure that keeps it compliant is ours to operate.

ACCREDITATION & INDEPENDENCE

Joint accreditation, independently governed

CineMed is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC).

All decisions regarding planning, faculty selection, and educational content are made independently of ineligible companies. Relevant financial relationships are identified, mitigated, and disclosed to learners prior to each activity. Content is developed by clinical experts to address identified care gaps, and presents a fair and balanced view of diagnostic and therapeutic options.

Disclosure and conflict-of-interest management handled end to end
Commercial support administered under Standard 4, where applicable
