Evaluation & Certificates

Quality and diversity in EAN

The main mission of EAN is to ensure excellence in Neurology. In order to guarantee the quality of the upcoming congresses, we are carrying out a general congress evaluation and evaluation of all individual sessions. 

EAN cares about diversity and asks speakers from different countries to speak at the sessions. Since 50% of EAN’s congress participants are female, it is important for us that there is also a gender balance of speakers. When proposing sessions and speakers for the congress, our panels are asked to include not only famous speakers, but also young rising stars. All feedback given during EAN meetings will be evaluated by our Ethics and Quality Task Force and considered for the next congresses. 

Please help EAN raise the quality of the events and evaluate the sessions. If you have suggestions on how EAN can improve, please contact us via email or visit us at the booth.

General Congress Evaluation

General Congress Evaluation will be available to all participants from the 2nd day of the congress – please make sure to give us your feedback and fill out the survey via the congress platform under MyCongress/Evaluation.

Evaluation deadline: Monday, 10 July 2023, 23:59 CEST.

NEW: Upon submitting the evaluation, a certificate of attendance will be available for download in the “Certificate” area.

Session's Evaluation

Session's evaluation of the attended sessions will be possible during the sessions and until the end of the congress. In return for the submitted evaluation, a CME certificate will be available for download in the “Certificate” area on the congress platform.

Speaker Evaluation

Session evaluation provides feedback not only concerning the quality of the session itself, but it is also an assessment of speakers’ performance. It shows if the performance and the presented content were up to the participants’ expectations. Evaluation results, analysed by the Ethics and Quality Task Force, are forwarded in form of an individualised report to the speakers, which allow them to learn about the received feedback and consider it for future lectures. Moreover, speakers’ performance evaluation impacts planning and composition of faculty of future EAN congresses and other educational events.

Accreditation

EACCME® Accreditation

The 9th Congress of the European Academy of Neurology – Budapest 2023, Budapest, Hungary, July 1-4, 2023, has been accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME®) with 24 European CME credits (ECMEC®s). Each medical specialist should claim only those hours of credit that he/she actually spent in the educational activity.

Through an agreement between the Union Européenne des Médecins Spécialistes and the American Medical Association, physicians may convert EACCME® credits to an equivalent number of AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM. Information on the process to convert EACCME® credit to AMA credit can be found at www.ama-assn.org/education/earn-credit-participation-international-activities.

Live educational activities, occurring outside of Canada, recognised by the UEMS-EACCME® for ECMEC®s are deemed to be Accredited Group Learning Activities (Section 1) as defined by the Maintenance of Certification Program of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.

Please find here https://eaccme.uems.eu/collaborations-european a list of countries that accept EACCME accreditation.

Individual national regulations regarding the number of points acknowledged will apply.
