The 2026 Quality, Safety & Cancer Conference is offering CME, CNE, MOCA, and NCRA continuing education credits, as well as a Certificate of Completion, based on attendees’ participation. Learners can claim credit at the QSCC credit claiming site, accessed through the mobile app. Completion of session and global evaluations is required, and evaluations may be submitted only once. Therefore, attendees should not begin evaluations until they have completed their participation in the certified content for which they wish to claim credit.
The deadline to claim Continuing Education credits or Certificate of Completion credit hours is 11:59 pm CT on October 2, 2026.
Credit Claiming will be available and must be claimed through the ACS Quality, Safety & Cancer Conference App. The app will be available on both the Apple and Google Play stores from Thursday, July 30–October 2, 2026.
To download, search your phone’s app store for “ACS QSC Conference.”
Please contact acsqscc@facs.org with any questions.
Important Update for CME Learners
Learners who wish to claim CME credit must submit an ACS ID via the QSCC credit claiming site. If you do not already have an American College of Surgeons profile (Learner ID), you can create one through the ACS New User Registration Form. This is a free offering for those who have enrolled in an ACS-Accredited educational activity. The ACS ID will grant you access to MyCME where you can track, manage, and send your CME data to the ABS.
If you need assistance with creating an ACS Learner ID or are not certain if you already have one, please contact Log-In Help.
