This activity is designated for 25 AAPA Category 1 CME Credits. Physician Associate should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation. (Pending Approval)

The Integrative Dermatology Symposium is pending approval for 25 General credit(s) of continuing education credits by the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians.
As you know, CE approval by the AANP covers all states that regulate naturopathic physicians, except Oregon. Please note that as of January 2025, the Oregon Board of Naturopathic Medicine (OBNM) will no longer approve a CE Activity submitted to them by the CE Activity Host. Only the individual Oregon licensee can apply directly to OBNM for CE approval.
If you do have an Oregon licensed ND attend your event, you can notify them that the program has not been submitted for approval to the OBNM, and provide them with the information needed for them to apply for approval as an individual. The AANP can assist you with providing Oregon NDs the requisite materials. (Pending approval)

Goal & Purpose
The annual Integrative Dermatology Symposium is designed to appeal to practitioners across disciplines. It will address emerging trends, and practical approaches to dermatology as practitioners assess and manage skin conditions and care. It is estimated that nearly one-third of the population is afflicted with a skin disorder. There is a great need for best practice sharing and cross-collaboration to support practitioners in the field and improve patient outcomes.
