Continuing Education
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR CLOUDCME USERS!
Starting Monday, December 2nd, the Center for Educational Excellence & Innovation (CEEI) will begin a transition to a new, self-hosted continuing education credit and course management platform. This change will provide enhanced flexibility and a better experience for both learners and providers. Please note that all registration and transcript data will remain accessible on the current platform until December 5, 2024, and will be transferred to the new platform by December 6, 2024. All live courses and regularly scheduled series will be transitioned, and user accounts from the old platform will be migrated to the new platform. We are committed to keeping you updated throughout this migration and to ensuring minimal interruption. Thank you for your understanding and patience as we make this transition. If you have any questions, concerns, or need assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at cmedepartment@childrens.harvard.edu. Please check back regularly for information specific to these roles:

The URL for the new platform will be sent to users via email. CloudCME will also redirect users to the new platform.

Your transcripts will be available on CloudCME until December 5th. After December 5th you will access and download your transcripts from the new CEEI learning platform.
