Accreditation Process

The following services are offered: 

  • Direct Providership – Activities that are planned and implemented by Michigan State University Continuing Medical Education. 
  • Co-Providership – Activities in which MSU CME cooperates with one or more other accredited organizations to plan and execute an event. In this case, both organizations will need to be listed on any documents and marketing materials. However, one of the accredited providers must take responsibility for the activity in terms of accreditation requirements and reporting to the appropriate agencies. 
  • Joint Providership – Activities that are jointly provided by MSU CME and a non-accredited organization.
