Sleep Medicine 2008
CME Information
ACCP Learning Categories
ACCP Learning Categories organize all ACCP education activities
based on how education is delivered to promote a wider variety
of educational methodologies. The sessions presented during
Sleep Medicine 2008 are clearly labeled to identify the type of
instruction and methodology used, so you can determine how
the presentation will meet your learning style and educational
goals. ACCP Learning Categories have no predetermined
requirements and will automatically be reflected on the ACCP’s
new online CME certificate. The six learning categories include:
ACCP Learning Category I: Lecture-Based
ACCP
Learning Category
II: Self-Directed
ACCP Learning Category III: Evidence-Based
ACCP Learning Category IV: Case- and Problem-Based
ACCP Learning Category V: Simulation
ACCP Learning Category VI: Quality Improvement
Maintenance of Licensure
The ACCP Learning Categories are further subcategorized into
“Maintenance of Licensure” (MOL) areas. The subcategorization
is very helpful for applying CME to state requirements. All of the
sessions in this program are subcategorized as MOL: Scope of
Practice-Sleep Medical Education.
More information about the ACCP Learning Categories
is available online at www.chestnet.org/education.index.php.

Disclosure Statement
The ACCP remains strongly committed to providing the best
available evidence-based clinical information to participants of
this educational activity and requires an open disclosure of any
potential conflict of interest identified by our faculty members.
It is not the intent of the ACCP to eliminate all situations of
potential conflict of interest but rather to enable those who
are working with the ACCP to recognize situations that may be
subject to question by others. All disclosed conflicts of interest
are reviewed by the educational activity course director/chair,
the Continuing Education Committee, or the Conflict of Interest
Review Committee to ensure that such situations are properly
evaluated and, if necessary, resolved. The ACCP educational
standards pertaining to conflict of interest are intended to
maintain the professional autonomy of the clinical experts
inherent in promoting a balanced presentation of science.
Through our review process, all ACCP CME activities are ensured
of independent, objective, scientifically balanced presentations
of information. Disclosure of any or no relationships will be made
available on-site during all educational activities.
