Figure Legend:
The maximum numbers of credit hours granted per cycle for the continuing medical education (CME) activities noted here were specified in the Bureau of Osteopathic Specialists' “template” responses, approved by the American Osteopathic Association (AOA) Board of Trustees in February 2006 (Resolution 45 [M/2006]—Specialty CME Reporting). *All activities must be related to the specialty for CME credit. Credit is awarded on an hour-by-hour basis for AOA specialty college seminars. For each other type of seminar, the number of maximum credit hours per cycle varies. For example, a maximum of 5 credit hours is allowed for human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and risk management seminars; a maximum of 15 credit hours is allowed for test construction and publications seminars; and a maximum of 25 credit hours is allowed for AOA state society, foundation, and college of osteopathic medicine seminars. A maximum of 25 credit hours are granted for preceptoring only if a board indicated in its Council on Continuing Medical Education survey that it accepts such credit. Each board makes its own recommendation for maximum credit hours allowed for participating in the AOA Annual Convention and Scientific Seminar. †The full name of this board is the American Osteopathic Boards of Ophthalmology and Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery. ‡Credit awarded on an hour-by-hour basis. Abbreviations: ACCME, Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education; NA, not applicable.
