Hasan,

 

I followed up with one of the individuals who was on the Oxford ICOP
committee and worked with the CECs.  Here is her response about the JCAHPO
CECs:

 

"Anytime we have an ICOP meeting on the North American continent, we
absolutely apply for JCAHPO credits, as we anticipate that there will be a
significant number of our attendees who hold joint certification.  There
were JCAHPO credits for ICOP 1994, ICOP 2006, and there will be for our
program next year, ICOP 2014! 

 

But there is a charge for application and review of courses for CECs from
JCAHPO, just as there is a charge to outside groups who apply for OPS CECs.
At Oxford, the number of attendees who held JCAHPO certification was a very
small number compared to the overall population of attendees, and the
expense could not be justified.  The course had full OPS CECS, but nothing
for JCAHPO.  

 

The program for ICOP Toronto, 2014 will be" fully loaded" with both OPS and
JCAHPO credits!"

 

I hope this information helps.

 

Best regards,

Barbara

The Continuing Education Units (CEU) we received during the ICOP meeting
that was held in Oxford, are they JCAHPO approved? If so; are they group A
or B?

In my certificate there were no indication.

Anyone?
