Global CME Impact Award: Transforming Healthcare for the Greater Good

Global and GAME announce innovative CME awards program

Littleton, CO: Global Education Group and Global Alliance for Medical Education announced a new awards program for the continuing medical education and healthcare industries. The Global CME Impact Award recognizes influence, excellence, and achievement by organizations and individuals executing impactful continuing medical education activities for healthcare professionals throughout the world. Stephen Lewis, Global's General Manager, noted that:

"The impact of CME on practice and patient health has never been greater than today. The award will celebrate influential and impactful CME programs that drive the CME industry forward, embrace collaboration and innovation amongst stakeholders, and transform healthcare for the greater good."

GAME’s President, Lisa Sullivan believes:

"The opportunity to take this award globally will provide an avenue for sharing best practice CME programming which presently is very limited and will, at the same time, avail the less developed CME markets with examples of excellence for them to learn from and adapt for their own environment."

The Global CME Impact Award call for entries begins today, September 6, 2016 and will run until November 7, 2016. The shortlist of finalists will be announced in January 2017, with the final winner and honorable mentions announced at the ACEhp Annual Meeting, January 26-29, 2017 in San Francisco, CA.
