Essentials of Planning ACCP Continuing Education Activities - On Demand

Why is this webinar important to your practice? 

This program provides an overview of ACCP requirements and best practices for planning high-quality continuing education (CE) activities that meet accreditation standards for integrity, independence, and educational effectiveness. Participants will review the Standards for Integrity and Independence, including eligibility criteria for organizations, identification and management of relevant financial relationships, and ACCP’s conflict of interest disclosure processes.

The activity also addresses foundational elements of CE design, including selection of appropriate activity types, development of measurable learning objectives aligned with Bloom’s Taxonomy, and integration of active learning strategies. Participants will explore principles of effective assessment design, with an emphasis on distinguishing knowledge-based versus application-based assessments, providing meaningful learner feedback, and avoiding common pitfalls in question writing.

Upon completion, learners will have a clearer understanding of how to develop compliant, learner-centered CE activities that align educational content, instructional methods, and assessment strategies to support independent, evidence-based clinical pharmacology education.
