CPECS information

EFLM Continuing Professional Education
Credit System – CPECS^®

The EFLM Strategic Conference will be submitted for CPECS^® accreditation to deliver CPECS® credits for participants.

The EFLM CPECS^® is an administrative system that provides a quality assurance mechanism for the accreditation of continuing education events based on high-quality continuing education content in laboratory medicine and relevant scientific topics. In those countries where a national crediting system is not in place, the CPECS^® system can directly represent the system adopted at national level for the certification of the educational events and may recognize CPECS^® credits on a voluntary basis.

Each participant must attend at least 75% of each session to get CPECS^® credits.

Each delegate interested in getting the CPECS^® credits must daily confirm the presence signing the entry and exit on the appropriate register at the Secretariat Desk.

Once the congress is over, only delegates with 75% of attendance will receive a specific email with the evaluation questionnaire to fill in. At the end of the whole process, the CPECS^® certificate will be issued and sent to the entitled participants.

Breakdown of credits

A maximum of 13 CPECS credits can be awarded for the educational sessions of the EFLM Strategic Conference 2026.
