Lectures & Orientations

A condition of your coverage with the Trust is annual attendance at a Trust sponsored educational program.  Trust sponsored educational programs are comprised of Lectures on varying medical-legal topics, as well as UPG and UVA Community Health Orientations.  Lectures and Orientations will be held at varying times and locations throughout the academic year; please call the Trust at (434) 296-2100 with questions on registration and attendance.

CME CREDITS: The University of Virginia School of Medicine (SOM) is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians. The SOM designates this educational activity for a maximum of 1.0 Category 1 credits towards the AMA Physician’s Recognition Award. Each physician should claim only those credits that one actually spent in the activity. CEU CREDITS: The SOM awards 1.0 CEU per contact hour to each non-physician participant who successfully completes this educational activity. The CEU is a nationally recognized unit of measure for continuing education and training activities that meet specific educational planning requirements. The SOM maintains a permanent record of participants who have been awarded CEUs.

Orientations

As a new provider you must attend a one-hour Trust orientation within your first academic year. Trust orientation can only be attended one time for credit, and you cannot attend a lecture in lieu of this orientation requirement, nor can you attend an orientation in lieu of a lecture requirement. Orientations are staggered throughout the academic year in order to best accommodate your schedule.

Current Schedule:  All by Zoom (eligible clinicians will receive an email with a link)
