CME

Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits help physicians and faculty stay current with the latest clinical knowledge and maintain licensure. The resources below offer free and subscription-based CME courses across a wide range of specialties.

Staying current with CME requirements is an ongoing part of practicing medicine, and these platforms make it easy to fit accredited coursework around a busy clinical or academic schedule. Whether you're renewing a license or simply want to deepen your knowledge in a particular specialty, the resources above offer flexible, self-paced options you can complete from anywhere.

When selecting a CME course, look for ones that are accredited by a recognized body (such as the ACCME) so the credits count toward your licensure requirements. Many of the platforms listed above also let you track your completed hours automatically, which can save time when it's renewal season. If you're not sure how many CME credits you need or which specialties to prioritize, check with your state or national licensing board for the most current requirements.

SJSM alumni returning to these resources after completing residency often find the same platforms useful for maintaining board certification, not just meeting initial licensure requirements. If your specialty isn't well represented among the three platforms listed above, reach out to the Library — we can help you identify additional accredited CME providers that offer more targeted coursework for your field. Keeping a personal log of completed hours and certificates as you go, rather than trying to reconstruct your CME history at renewal time, will also save you a significant amount of stress down the road.
