How do I claim CME or MOC credits and print my Certificate of Attendance/Participation?

To claim Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits and Maintenance of Certification (MOC) points, or Certificate of Participation for non-physicians, please follow the following steps:

  • Visit education.endocrine.org/endo2021
  • Log In (upper right corner of page).
  • Click START to begin the evaluation.
  • Click preference of CME credits and cetificate type: American Board of Internal Medicine MOC points (physicians only), American Board of Pediatrics MOC points (physicians only), or Certificate of Participation (non-physicians) to claim your applicable activities.

Non-physician Healthcare Professionals: The Endocrine Society is accredited to provide CME credits for physicians which only includes MDs/DOs. All Non-physician participants at ENDO 2021 should select the Certificate of Participation evaluation and certificate option. Completion of this evaluation option will result in a CME Certificate of Attendance which displays the activity certification for AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s) TM (CME) credits and can then be submitted to the appropriate accrediting bodies for continuing education credit. In this scenario, it is the responsibility of participants to submit the certificates to their participating accrediting body or licensing board and Endocrine Society cannot guarantee its acceptance.

    Attendee Best Practices

    • Be sure to have at least 8 Mb per second for download and 0.6 Mb per second for upload speeds for standard definition (3 Mb download and 1.5 Mb upload speeds for HD).
    • Please close all browser tabs or pause software updates running in the background as this may slow down your processing speed.
    • To avoid an echo, be sure to join each session with your mic disabled or utilize headphones.
    • Please do a sound check prior to accessing sessions.
    • Turn off all notifications on your computer to avoid distractions.
    • Test the lighting in your video, make certain you are front facing the light to ensure the audience can see you clearly which will reduce any shadows. Note: If you have a window behind you, please close the shades to prevent any glare.
    • Frame Yourself: Place your camera at eye level and at a distance close enough to frame your face, neck, and shoulders.
    • Make certain your attendee profile is accurate and up to date for optimal success.
