ACCME Accreditation and Speaker Selection

The American Society for Nutrition is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians and the Commission on Dietetic Registration as a provider of Continuing Professional Education programs for Registered Dietitians.

Speakers and planners are expected to follow accreditation guidelines and help us create high-quality education that is independent of industry influence.

Speakers must disclose all financial relationships with ineligible companies that you have had over the past 24 months. Ineligible companies are defined as those whose primary business is producing, marketing, selling, re-selling, or distributing healthcare products used by or on patients.

Employees, owners, and stock owners of ineligible companies are generally disqualified from presenting in CME activities, unless specific exceptions are met.
