Reporting Credits

Required Documentation for Approval of CE Credits

In general, proof of attendance documentation must be in the form of a certificate that includes the provider name, attendee name, the MDCB activity number, the activity name, the date the activity was completed, the number of credits approved, the activity start and end date, ARRT Category A designation, and the signature of a representative of the CE sponsor. Documentation without this information cannot be approved.

Academic Coursework: An official transcript and course catalog descriptions for the courses you want evaluated. The official transcript and corresponding course catalog descriptions should be submitted as one personal credit request.

Journal Authoring: A PDF of the final published article listing authors.

Journal Editing & Reviewing: A dated letter or email from the publisher listing the articles edited or reviewed.

Speaker Presentations: A letter or certificate from the course/conference organizer confirming that you presented the lecture. Presentations related to a CMD's job function will not be approved.

Important Tips

  • CE credits can be updated and tracked continuously as a benefit of being an active CMD.
  • New CMDs can accumulate CE credits beginning January 1 following certification, provided the annual credential renewal fee has been submitted.
  • Credit can be recorded by updating learning plans/transcripts in the CE Center at https://mdcb.learningbuilder.com. In accordance with ARRT RCEEM guidelines, CMDs will be required to complete a 4-question evaluation for each activity submitted.
  • Credits must be earned during a current five-year cycle.
  • All CE activities must be deemed eligible by the MDCB and pre-approved, as noted here. CMDs can verify that activities are MDCB-approved by using the Find Activities search on the login page at https://mdcb.learningbuilder.com.
  • MDCB will conduct audits throughout the year according to the posted schedule.
  • Credits should be documented in the year they are earned.
  • At the end of every 5-year term, the CMD must have completed a minimum of 50 MDCB-approved/accepted CE credits to remain actively credentialed. The AAMD Foundation offers a grant for travel to an AAMD conference for CMDs in need of 20+ credits. Details on the grant can be found here.
