Future-proofing CME/CPD
The 19th Annual European CME Forum will take place 11–13 November 2026 in the Van der Valk Hotel Schipol, The Netherlands
The theme this year is "Future-proofing CME/CPD" which will be explored from the perspectives of our key stakeholders.
The overall aim of the meeting is to review the current status of CME/CPD and provide practical guidance and education on developments, best practices and emerging themes, to help us reflect on and improve CME/CPD practices among education providers from medical societies, professional education providers, regulators, CME accreditors and supporting pharma companies.
