American Society of Bariatric Physicians (ASBP) Take-at-Home Audio CME Courses
In addition to the ABBM Review Course, ABBM recommends ASBP courses and audio programs to complete the necessary CME credits in bariatric medicine. More information on upcoming ASBP CME events can be found at http://www.asbp.org.

Additional Online CME Sources Following is a list of online CME provider sites that may offer overweight- and obesity-related CME topics that could be used to satisfy the ABBM CME requirement for board certification candidacy. Please note that, because of the one-year “shelf life” of these programs, program offerings on each site are frequently updated and changed. Please note that this list is not inclusive of all sites that may contain applicable CME opportunities and that your best alternative is to do a Web search for online CME using a variety of search engines.

CME Credit Rules
Bariatric CME credits will be accepted from any CME activities that are focused specifically and solely on obesity, as long as the activity was approved for ACCME Category 1 credits. Credits from CME activities on obesity co-morbidities will only be approved for the number of hours that obesity treatment was the focus of the activity. An activity outline, including lecture topics and the length of each lecture must be submitted. Credits may come from in-person activities or self-study in any combination of the two to attain the 100 credits needed.
