Essential Area 1: Purpose and Mission
Element 1.2
Demonstrate how the CME mission is congruent
with and supported by the mission of the parent organization, if a
parent organization exists.
If an accredited provider has a parent
organization, it must demonstrate that the CME mission statement of the
provider is congruent with and supported by the parent organization.
This can be accomplished in one of two ways:
1) CME is mentioned in the parent organization's
mission statement (there is no specific requirement on what must be
said), and CME is supported by the parent organization through financial
resources, facilities, and/or human resources; OR
2) The provider's CME mission statement is
reviewed and approved by the governing body of the parent organization
on a regular basis (every one to two years).
