Aerospace Medical Association Continuing Medical Education activities are planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership of the Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society and the Aerospace Medical Association. The Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.  AsMA provides all CME during the Annual Scientific Meeting held in April or May each year.  The Annual Scientific Meeting provides a forum for the exchange of information, knowledge, and advances in clinical, operational, and research efforts in aerospace medicine, human performance, and their allied sciences.  The Annual Scientific Meeting is designed to provide attendees the newest information on safeguarding human life and enhancing human performance under extreme environmental conditions.
