ISS SUPPORT SERVICES DIVISION
ISS Support Services Division builds and maintains web
sites. It provides customized CE meeting planning solutions and
methods for helping associations provide complete meeting services to their
members. This includes scanable CE formats (for fast CEU credit issuance) to
quality ID card badges for board members, association members, or meeting
attendees.
ISS is committed to improving the state of continuing
medical education (CME) programs for health professionals by:
- Developing
and evaluating innovative approaches to CME
- Promoting
interactive, evidence-based, "problem-solving" CME programs
- Working
with first-tier academic centers and professional societies to enhance
their online education programs
- Performing
peer-reviewed research in medical education, and creating an open
community for suggestions, ideas, and constructive criticism of CME
programs
- The
needs assessment focus is clinical and practical. For example, what does a
practicing physician need to know? What timely and relevant studies have
been reported recently and what do their results tell us? Where can a busy
physician find information and acquire CME credit quickly?
ISS is supported primarily by fees from individual users
and organizations that desire a venue for ethical and quality continuing
education programs for healthcare professionals. Some course development is
supported by grants from healthcare organizations, and these sources of support
are always identified on the course information page. ISS only offers
courses supported by educational grants from pharmaceutical or device companies
once a complete an independent needs assessment has been completed by our
autonomous panel of physicians, pharmacists, nurses, and other medical professionals.
