All physicians are required to continue to advance their medical education throughout their careers, ensuring they are up to date on current understanding and practices in medicine. The Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine (VCOM) is committed to providing its teaching faculty, alumni and others, with a variety of opportunities for life-long learning and Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits.聽
