Continuing Education Requirements for Active CHAMP ProvidersAs of July 2011, in order to remain on a list of Active CHAMP Providers, Providers will have to meet yearly continuing education requirements. CHAMP offers webcasts and courses free of charge that will fulfill the requirement of earning three category 1 AMA PRA CME credits on the topic of child abuse every year.Between September 2011 and June 2012 CHAMP will offer seven web-based educational opportunities: four Quarterly Educational Case Reviews and three Basic Skills webcasts. Each activity grants one category 1 AMA PRA CME credit award. These offerings are free of charge and require registration and returning a Continuing Medical Education Evaluation. Attendance at these web-based offerings is tracked. Dates and registration and evaluation forms are available from the What’s New and Webcasts areas of the CHAMP website. In lieu of attending one of the Quarterly Educational Case Reviews or Basic Skills webcasts, Providers can take either the Adolescent Sexual Assault: Consent Issues course or the Fractures and Child Abuse course. These courses are available from the Courses area of the CHAMP website and require registration. They are free of charge and do not grant CMEs. Providers have until June 30, 2012, to earn the three credits. Those Providers who have completed this requirement will be listed on the CHAMP website as being an Active CHAMP Provider. Those Providers who do not meet the requirement will be listed on a separate list as having successfully completed the CHAMP training but who are no longer Active CHAMP Providers.
