Education
The Department of Medical Education (DME) is responsible for coordinating all AFIP training by offering opportunities through Continuing Medical Education (CME) in pathology, radiology, and other medical disciplines. The primary audience is military and civilian physicians, nurses, radiologists, related sub-specialty clinicians, and other industry-related professionals domestically and internationally. In March 2008, the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) awarded the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology "Accreditation with Commendation ", the maximum award status that entitles the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology to a six-year certification period of continuing medical education for physicians. The rating is the highest available by a CME provider, and according to ACCME policy is "reserved for programs which are truly exceptional. " The Armed Forces Institute of Pathology is proud to have achieved this exemplary status. Thank you to all our faculty, educational partners, and participants.
