NEW SCOPE Course Accreditation Scheme!

IASO encourages organisers hosting events, courses and meetings related to the management of obese and overweight patients to apply for SCOPE Accreditation.

IASO is now a member of The CPD Certification Service, and offers CPD Certification for your event as part of SCOPE Accreditation. 

Benefits of SCOPE Accreditation

• Recognition for providing courses that have been scrutinised by an international panel of experts
• Promotion of your event to IASO's extensive network of contacts
• Allocation of SCOPE points for participants to earn, which count towards SCOPE Certification
• Allocation of CPD points for participants
• Feedback and support while hosting a SCOPE Accredited event
• Become part of a growing global nework of experts on obesity management

SCOPE points allocation

SCOPE points are allocated based on course length. Typically each hour of learning is worth 1/4 point, although allocation of points is at the discretion of the SCOPE Accreditation Committee.

Note: In order for participants to be credited with SCOPE and CPD points, course organisers must submit an attendance list to scope@iaso.org
