3. WSU Mission Statement (Old Criteria) 559 Words Wayne State University School of Medicine is committed to excellence in education and research and to the translation of new knowledge into excellence of patient care. Its commitment to the education of physicians extends from undergraduate education through residency and fellowship training to education for the practicing physician. PURPOSE: The Goal of the School's CME program is to plan and deliver high quality education activities for practicing physicians in order to reinforce their past learning and to disseminate new concepts and practices in medicine which may improve patient care for all medical specialties. In accordance with the educational affiliation agreement between Wayne State University and the Detroit Medical Center, the School is the accredited sponsor for all CME activities of the Detroit Medical Center and its constituent institutions. TARGET AUDIENCE: The audiences to be reached by its program of CME are: Physicians in all medical specialties and sub-specialties Faculty of the school and medical staffs of DMC hospitals Physicians practicing in metropolitan Detroit, throughout the State of Michigan or wherever practicing in the US or internationally. Physicians-in-training Other health care professionals from Wayne State University, the DMC hospitals and the community TYPES OF ACTIVITIES: The educational activities provided within the program shall use whatever educational methods are appropriate and may include lectures, laboratories, discussion groups, and enduring materials such as, films, video tapes, monographs, computer programs and web based programs. The types of activities may include live courses, live regularly schedules seminars, live internet conferences, and enduring materials such as non- synchronous internet courses and journal CME. Whenever it may promote the educational objectives of the School, any of the above types of activities may be Jointly Sponsored with other institutions or groups which may or may not themselves be accredited to provide CME. CONTENT AREAS: The content areas of CME activities sponsored by the Wayne State University School of Medicine include primary care, and specialty and sub-specialty topics in all fields of medicine. The scope of sponsored activities includes the basic medical sciences, clinical medical sciences and the provision of health care to the public.

It shall promote research into how physicians learn, how to plan and deliver educational materials to meet their needs. The Division of Continuing Medical Education expects the general academic quality of each CME activity to be relevant to the level of medical practice of the target audience, that the educational process activities will be of appropriate quality, and that the activities will be applicable to the professional development needs of physicians and health professionals in the community. The Division insures that all CME activities comply with the accreditation requirements as established by the ACCME. EXPECTED RESULTS: As a result of participation in Wayne State University Continuing Medical Education programs, practicing clinicians will improve patient care competency, maintain specialty board certification and cultivate lifelong learning. These objectives will be achieved in a setting which is evidence-based, culturally sensitive and free of commercial bias. The CME office is committed to the practice of continuing program improvement. The office will actively explore new educational technologies, develop collaborative relationships, and seek to build the capacity to evaluate patient care outcomes.

4. A. Compliant B. Non-Compliant Mission Statement (71 Words) To develop and implement creative, ethical, and evidence-based educational opportunities for life-long learning that are designed to increase competence, enhance practice performance, promote patient safety, and/or improve patient outcomes in the populations served by the healthcare providers we educate.

5. Mission Statement Can accredited providers include components in their CME mission statements in addition to the expected results described in Criterion 1? ACCME: Yes. Accredited providers can choose to include components in their CME mission statements in addition to those specified in Criterion 1.

6. CME Mission Statement The purpose of the Office of Continuing Medical Education (CME) is to certify learning activities for physicians in order to improve the practice of medicine. This includes patient care, research, medical education, and administration. In addition, the office tracks credits for physicians who attend CME-certified activities and provides consultation on educational processes and accreditation issues. The content areas include a range of clinical, research, medical teaching, and leadership skills that are based on identified needs of practitioners. This includes all segments of contemporary, primary, and specialty practice. MSU is a world-class institution of higher learning. The target audience of the CME office includes: the broad community of health care professionals, including primary and specialty physicians locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally. Those target audiences include: Clinicians, researchers, medical educators, and medical administrative leaders at MSU Physicians from our six community campuses throughout the state Physicians and other health professionals in the United States who participate in national activities jointly sponsored by our educational partners and framed in the context of the IOM and ACGME competencies International physicians and health professionals who attend national conferences and/or take advantage of our Web-based learning resources The CME office sponsors a wide range of educational activities: Regularly Scheduled Series (RSS) Live activities Enduring materials (online learning, monographs, CD-ROMs) Test item writing Journal-based CME The expected results of the CME program are to provide activities that: Incorporate the educational needs that underlie the professional practice gaps of our learners, and which match the current or potential scope of professional activities independent of commercial interests Improve patient outcomes through early adoption of new standards and enhanced clinical skills Foster the continuing educational development of physicians and health professionals to enhance their competence and performance Improve the quality of the educational process through consultation and documented compliance with accreditation standards/criteria Expand the use of technology in the documentation of physician participation Enhance physician’s professional competence through integrating the use of technological advances, health care information, and research findings based on valid content with the ultimate goal of improved patient outcomes in clinical and professional practices MSU

7. CME Mission Statement Our mission is to assist physicians and health care professionals in their commitment to lifelong learning by providing evidence-based medical education to enhance their ability to provide excellent patient care, health maintenance and improved patient outcomes.
