Certificates

A. For Section1 and Mainpro-M1 credits, it is possible for you to provide your own certificates.  In this case it is essential that the certificates include the following information:

    Physician’s Name
    Program Name - exactly as it appears on the application for accreditation
    Event Date and Location
    Accreditation Statement - received upon approval of program
    Maximum number of Credit Hours available
    Signature of the Accountable Physician

B. For AMA PRA Category 1 credits, we are required to provide certificates for all physicians seeking AMA credits.  Please see the distribution and payment options below.
Program Directors must maintain a record of attendance for program participants. Requests regarding verification of attendance may be forwarded to Program Directors for their response.

Payment is required prior to issuing any certificates.

The process for obtaining AMA certificates is as follows:

1. Please forward an attendance record in excel format (sample attendance record) for those who would like certificates. It includes their name and number of credits they are claiming.
2. Provide one address where the certificates will be shipped where they can then be individually sent out (sorry, but we cannot distribute the certificates individually).
3. Fees are listed below and can be paid by cheque to UBC CPD or by visa (call us) from your conference account.
4. Keep the sign-in sheets and disclosures for your files in case of an audit.
