Score table to determine the credits from the logged activities of MEDs

MEDs should log their activities in their logbook that we have designed for that purpose. Each activity with a value for CME should be noted with date and reference for review or verification. For each such activity the numerator in the column "Effective units" on the scoring table goes up by 1. At the end of the 3 to 5 years period (the proposed recertification period for which the score is calculated) the "Creditable score points" are calculated using the informations in the columns "Score points/unit" and "min/max score points" from the same table. The minimal score points needed for a recertification by the EDTC Certifying Board are shown in the text field below the table.
