How to gain your CME-CPD credits

The EADV offers individual CME-CPD participation through the attendance of a scientific session (either onsite or through the virtual platform) and the speaker/session evaluation that will be available for 3 months after the end of the EADV Congress.

  1. Scan your badge as you pass through the entrance of each session hall, your data will be then transmitted to the system (or access the session online on-demand).
    Virtual and On-demand sessions are accredited. The system will detect the on-line viewing time of session.
  2. Complete the anonymous online evaluation for each attended session. Access the evaluation system in the “My Congress” area on the online Congress platform.
  3. Download your CME-CPD certificate and retain it for your personal records.

Evaluation data is essential to our statistics and is of considerable help in the choice of future topics and speakers. Your feedback and comments are greatly appreciated.

Healthcare Professional definition

  1. Important note to Healthcare and Non-Healthcare Professionals

    Access to the different areas and sessions of the Congress depends on the Healthcare Professional status.

    As a multidisciplinary audience will attend the EADV Congress, the EADV will assign different classes to Healthcare Professionals (HCPs) and Non-Healthcare Professionals (non-HCPs) to ensure compliance with the French Les Entreprises du Medicament (Leem) Rules of Professional Conduct (Dispositions Deontologiques Professionnelles (DDP)).

    Specifically, HCPs are classified into the following groups: medical doctors, nursing and midwifery professionals, dentists, pharmacists, professionals involved in rehabilitation, and technical paramedical professionals.

    Please read the description below to ensure that you (or your delegates) comply with the regulations in place.

EADV members are not automatically considered Healthcare Professionals

Please select the correct status (HCP or non-HCP) during registration.

  1. Definition
    The DDP code defines HCPs as follows:
    “Healthcare Professional: An individual who is a member of a healthcare profession regulated by the French Public Health Code, regardless of whether he or she is a civil servant or public official, or any other person practising in France who, in the course of his/her professional activities, may prescribe, purchase, dispense, recommend or administer a Medicinal Product. This definition does not apply to Healthcare Professionals employed by Companies, wholesalers or distributors, excluding those whose primary occupation is that of a practising Healthcare Professional.”

    Medical students     are not considered Healthcare Professionals under the current guidelines and will be automatically classified as Non-Healthcare Professionals.
  1. Industry sessions
    Satellite Symposia and Industry Hub Sessions presenting data on the development, research, or other issues related to prescription medicine is restricted to Healthcare Professionals and Industry Participants as indicated by the Industry Session Organizer.
    All promotional materials and marketing aids related to these industry sessions should be strictly limited to HCPs.

    Industry Session organisers can limit participation to certain representative groups independently from the EADV recommendations if deemed imperative to achieving the session’s intended purpose. The organising company reserves the right to refuse single categories, particularly if they are not adequately related to the session’s objective and purpose.

    The industry session organiser is responsible for compliance with the session.
