EFLM Continuing Professional Education Credit System

Application to the EFLM CPECS® to deliver CPECS® credits for participants has been made for the IFCC-EFLM EuroMedLab Brussels 2025 Congress.

EFLM CPECS® is an administrative system that provides a quality assurance mechanism for the accreditation of continuing education programs and events offered based on high-quality continuing education content in laboratory medicine and relevant scientific topics.

In those countries where a national crediting system is not in place, the CPECS® system can directly represent the system adopted at national level for the certification of the educational events and may recognize CPECS® credits on a voluntary basis.

 

How to get credits

Each participant must attend at least 75% of each session to get CPECS® credits. Information on CPECS® credits per session can be found in the scientific program and the mobile app (once available).

A board with a specific QR code will be placed inside each conference room. Each delegate interested in getting the CPECS® credits must scan the QR code at the entrance and at the exit of the room for every session. In order to scan the QR code the delegate has to use the dedicated Congress APP where a section will be entirely dedicated to the CPECS program, accessible with the credentials received during registration to the congress.

Once the congress is over, only delegates with 75% of attendance will receive a specific email with the evaluation questionnaire for the sessions they attended. At the end of the whole process, they will automatically receive the CPECS® certificate.
