Important: CMEs will be awarded by email within 10-14 days after each meeting
unless you have been informed at the meeting of a potential delay.
It is very important that you make sure that you receive them at that time if you have attended the meeting.
Our secretary (smitheransono@gmail.com) is allowed 30 days by the SDMS to enter the CMEs for attending members after each meeting.
After that time period it is not possible to provide you with the credits.
If you have any other questions about your CMEs, please contact our secretary, Tiffany Smitheran by email at smitheransono@gmail.com as soon as possible.
