CMEPEDIA offers you a broad range of subjects on our webshop.
We encourage content providers to charge fairly for the modules or distribute them for free. Please take a look at our pricing considerations to inform you about our pricing policy.
CMEPEDIA offers private individuals, organizations, and companies the opportunity to sponsor modules for CMEPEDIA users. Anyone can sponsor a premium subscription to reduce the carbon footprint of the re-licensing procedure and the administrative burden on healthcare professionals. To align with the policies of the principal accrediting bodies, we allow eligible companies to sponsor paid and free accredited content. Ineligible companies can give unrestricted grants to cover the expenses of free accredited content.
We continuously monitor our subscribers' learning needs. You can create your wish list via the CMEPEDIA website. We seek sponsorship to help you reach your re-licensing target. CMEPEDIA will never share your private details with sponsors. To align with the policies of the principal accrediting bodies, we present these data only in groups and not on an individual level.
CMEPEDIA makes decisions regarding the receipt and disbursement of commercial support as follows:
We allocate sponsorship to users who have added courses to their wishlists, as we are sure they are keen to study those modules that are financially out of their reach. Our system selects the cheapest course first. It prioritises healthcare professionals in low-budget settings. We ensure that each user receives sponsorship for one course before becoming eligible for sponsorship of an additional course.
The allocation of funds is automated; no CMEPEDIA employee can manually override it. The sponsor will receive an overview of the allocation on an invoice. We don't show the allocation before the sponsoring payment, as it might lead to a selection bias. If our sponsoring budget exceeds the number of wishes, we help healthcare professionals plan their course material and allocate it to courses matching their interests. We disclose the names of the companies providing the sponsorship and the nature of the support to you. We don't allow ineligible companies to sponsor paid courses as per the accreditation criteria.
We will notify you and give you one month to start studying. If you do not start within a month, the course will be matched with another healthcare professional in the CMEPEDIA community.
You can manage sponsored modules by studying these modules yourself.

You can add third-party activities to your portfolio to make sure you document your complete progress.
CMEPEDIA will send out reminders to you when your re-licensing date is approaching.
