CE Credit Details

CAMPEP

The 2024 QA & Dosimetry Symposium has approval from the Commission on Accreditation of Medical Physics Education Programs, Inc. (CAMPEP) for (14) MPCEC continuing education credit hours.

  • To obtain continuing education credit, attendees must complete an online evaluation survey.
  • CAMPEP email address is required.
  • The survey will be available online Friday, 16 February 2024, through Sunday, 3 March 2024, at Noon EST.
  • Attendees must complete the survey by 3 March 2024 at Noon EST in order to receive CAMPEP credit.
  • After the meeting:
    • Following the close of the 2024 QA & Dosimetry Symposium online evaluation system, Sun Nuclear will provide CAMPEP with participant contact information, credits earned, and the appropriate processing fees in order for individual participants to access their personal 2024 QA & Dosimetry Symposium transcript via the CAMPEP online MPCEC Repository database. Please be advised, CAMPEP transcripts are viewable via the CAMPEP online MPCEC Repository database. Participants will not receive a hardcopy CAMPEP transcript. Should a participant need a hard copy of the 2024 QA & Dosimetry Symposium transcript, an individual may order a hard copy transcript from CAMPEP. View details here.
    • Medical Physicist registrants will be contacted with instructions for viewing the meeting transcript via the CAMPEP website. The transcript will list a description of the sessions and the number of continuing education credits obtained.
  • MPCEC credits will be released on 8 March 2024
