Continuing Medical Education (CME) is widely accepted to encourage individual practitioners to maintain and develop professional knowledge and skills keeping up-to-date with latest developments within the field.

The EHA-LSHBT Virtual Hematology Updates are accredited by the EBAH system. Participants who join the live webinars of the EHA-LSHBT Virtual Hematology Series are eligible to receive 2.5 CME credit points per course.

We encourage all attendees to participate in the live webinars. Through live participation you are able to a part of the high degree of online interactivity, hear directly from the chairs and speakers, and it gives you the chance to ask the experts all your questions on the topic at hand. Therefore, we have decided that you will no longer receive CME points for watching the on-demand content.
