What is meant by the "other/blended learning activity" format?
This term is reserved for accredited CE activities that don't fall into one of the existing/established activity types. If your accredited CE activity blends existing activity types (e.g., a hybrid activity that is part live course, part enduring material) and/or utilizes a unique technology to instruct learners (like simulation, virtual reality, or gamification), "other/blended learning activity" is an appropriate format selection. Make sure your team identifies the activity as such in all program materials, credit designation statements, and in PARS.
Do we need to schedule a 30-minute break between an accredited CE session and non-accredited CE session if they are being held in different rooms?
Standard 5 requires that accredited continuing education is kept separate from marketing by ineligible companies and from non-accredited education offered in conjunction with the accredited CE. Separation can be achieved by time or space, so a 30-minute break is not necessary in this situation.
