Current and Recent Committee Activities

1) Development of a formal proposal for the development of a comprehensive Maintenance of Certification Program (MOC). The proposed system will include an ongoing self assessment, individualized dashboards and accounts, module based learning, case-log tracking, non-validated Quality Assessment (QA) tracking and credentials storage. The CME Committee will partner with the Philanthropy Committee to develop this initiative.

2) The following PowerPoint lectures have been assembled by the CME Committee and cover a wide range of transplantation related topics.   This "living textbook" on transplantation will be updated on a continuous basis.
