CE Program Accreditation

Thank you for considering the American Association of Diabetes Educators (AADE) for your continuing education.  The AADE is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) and the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) in addition to the California Board of Registered Nursing. 

• The AADE is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education as a provider of continuing pharmacy education  
• The AADE is an accredited provider and approver of continuing nursing education by the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Commission on Accreditation
• The AADE is a Continuing Professional Education (CPE) Accredited Provider with the Commission on Dietetic Registration (Applicants may also seek prior approval of dietetic programs by contacting CDR  directly)

Commercial Support
AADE does not review and co-provide/approve continuing education programs developed by commercial entities to be in compliance with the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education Standards for Commercial Support which have been adopted by the ACPE and ANCC. In addition, AADE does not permit educational materials developed by commercial entities, such as slides and handouts, to be used in educational programs.

Deadlines
Deadlines for submissions are enforced. In order for AADE to complete the peer review process, applications for continuing education credit must be received 45 business days prior to the program's initial date. Applications submitted less than 45 business days but more than 30 business days prior to the program's initial date will incur a late fee. We will return applications submitted less than 30 business days prior to the program's inital date as we are unable to process applications that quickly. The AADE does not approve program applications for continuing education retroactively.

Approval Process
When AADE receives a completed application for continuing education credit, we send the application to a multidisciplinary team of trained peer reviewers. The peer review process assures compliance with all accreditation standards. Based on the reviewers' comments, applicants are provided feedback and recommendations for change.
