ACCREDIT YOUR EDUCATION

ABQAURP believes that life-long learning is a worthy endeavor to pursue. Continuing education, in the areas of new research, problem areas in clinical practice, and outcome-based learning, represents the core of ABQAURP's CME mission.

What is "Joint Sponsorship"?
A Joint Sponsorship is when ABQAURP (an accredited CME/CEU provider) enters into a relationship with a non-accredited entity to provide continuing medical education (CME) credit and/or nursing contact hours (CEU).

Working with organizations and reviewing their educational event, ABQAURP determines if the activity meets the criteria to be continuing medical education. ABQAURP is then able to provide accreditation for non-accredited educational content.

ABQAURP welcomes applications for joint sponsorship of educational activities. ABQAURP is committed to providing continuing medical education to improve the efficiency, effectiveness, and quality of health care delivered to patients to improve the overall clinical outcome.

Accreditation
ABQAURP is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) as a sponsor of continuing medical education programs; ACCME is the official accrediting organization for Continuing Medical Education. It is required that each jointly sponsored Continuing Medical Education activity be planned and implemented in compliance with the ACCME's Essentials, Guidelines and Standards.

ABQAURP has met the educational requirements and has been approved by the Florida Board of Nursing to provide contact hours (CEU) for nurses in our educational programs, Provider # 50-94. These credits are transferable to all 50 states and Washington D.C.
