The 2022 AAPM Summer School will apply to the Commission on Accreditation of Medical Physics Education Programs, Inc. (CAMPEP) for approval of 24.50 MPCEC continuing education credit hours.

To obtain MPCEC credit, attendees must attend each session in its entirety and complete the online CEC evaluation survey.

• System Opens: Wednesday, June 8, 2022
• System Closes: Monday, July 25, 2022 (11:59 PM EDT)

Please Note:

• Your Confirmation Number/Badge I.D. will be required to access system and complete the CEC evaluation survey.
• You can only evaluate sessions that have taken place on day(s) included in your registration category.

After the Meeting:

• MPCEC and SAM credits will be released by Thursday, August 4, 2022.
• Following the close of the 2022 AAPM Summer School online CEC evaluation system, AAPM will provide CAMPEP with participant contact information, credits earned, and the appropriate processing fees. Individual participants will be able to access their 2022 AAPM Summer School transcript via the CAMPEP online MPCEC Repository database. Please be advised, AAPM will not provide a hardcopy CAMPEP transcript. Should a participant need a hardcopy, an individual may order one directly from CAMPEP. Click here for more details.

SAM quiz questions will be accessible here once available.

Many AAPM members now require Maintenance of Certification (MOC) as defined by the American Board of Radiology (ABR). At least 75 continuing education (CE) credits are required every 3 years. CE credits may be met by a combination of Category 1 credits (CAMPEP or ACCME) and self-directed educational projects (SDEPs). At least 25 of the 75 CE credits must be self-assessment CE (SA-CE). Other than ABR prequalified SAMs and SDEPs, the ABR will count all AMA Category 1 CME activities in “enduring materials” (including web based and print) and “journal-based CME” formats toward the MOC self-assessment requirement. SAMS are not required but can be used to meet the (SA-CE) requirements.

More information regarding the MOC requirements can be found here: What is MOC? »

SAM Attendee Process:

• To assist attendees who require MOC, AAPM will offer ABR approved SAM sessions. AAPM will use QR code tickets for tracking of SAM session attendance. SAM questions are no longer embedded in SAM presentations, so audience interaction is not needed. SAM questions will be included as part of the online evaluation survey. There is no pass/fail.

Please note: Before entering a SAM Session you will need to drop one QR code ticket into the designated bin near the session entrance for attendance verification.

To obtain SAM credits, you must:

• Attend the SAM session in its entirety; and
• Complete and finalize the online evaluation survey no later than Monday, July 25, 2022, at 11:59 PM EDT.
