Age.na.s. has published, on its institutional website dedicated to Continuing Medical Professional Education (CME), the updated version of the Handbook on Continuing Education of Healthcare Professionals, now in its second edition (the first one dates back to 2018), which collects all the latest deliberations of the National Commission for Continuing Education.

In particular, the number of training credits for the three-year period 2023-2025 remains unchanged (150), but the relative reductions are modified, providing a discount of 30 credits for healthcare professionals who build an individual or group training dossier, in accordance with point 2.2.1 of the Handbook (previously a discount of only 10 credits was provided) and a discount of 20 credits (as opposed to the 15 previously provided) for those who have fulfilled their training dossier in the previous three-year period.

Changes have also been introduced in relation to so-called Individual Training, which includes training activities not provided by providers (i.e. scientific research activities, individual tutoring, individual training activities abroad and self-training activities), with more details to describe the aforementioned activities and attributing a greater number of training credits to their performance than in the past.

Finally, new modalities for the recognition of credits from individual training activities are outlined, eliminating the now superfluous formats of accreditation applications previously attached to the Handbook.
