Grand Rounds Update for 2024-25

The CME Office has released a new CME Portal for faculty to browse course content across the College of Medicine in both Gainesville and Jacksonville, annotate presentations, claim CME creditcomplete evaluations, and access CME transcripts and certificates. 

1) Faculty must create an account and include their Medical License Number.
2) Scan the QR Code at Grand Grounds or sign the Attendance Sheet at Grand Rounds to record attendance.
3) Complete the evaluation on the CME Portal (optional).
4) Receive CME credit.

Evaluations must be completed in order to receive CME credit and to have credit uploaded to CE Broker. Recording attendance alone does not automatically equal credit.

The new CloudCME App (not required but highly recommended) is available for both Apple and Android; please use Organization Code “UF” when prompted.
