Joint providership and Endorsement

Endorsement

Endorsement by the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) means that SIR has reviewed the content of the course and has, through a physician review process against a set of annually updated criteria, deemed it in line with SIR's mission, vision and core values. SIR is not responsible in assisting with the creation or development of the course and no CME credit will be awarded through the Society.

Endorsement applications must be received by SIR no later than 6 months before the start date of the meeting. Fees are based on the number of participants provided on the application.

Endorsement benefits

After an application is completed, submitted and approved by the committee, a non-refundable, fee will be paid to SIR by the endorsed meeting organizer. In exchange, the endorsed meeting organizer will receive an approved SIR logo (the “endorsement logo”), according to terms specified in the endorsement agreement.

Endorsement marketing package (additional fee)

Additional marketing of your meeting can be purchased, to include:

Meeting listing on the SIRconnect events listing on the homepage
Meeting listing in the calendar section of SIR's bi-weekly and/or monthly digital newsletters, or an equivalent email communication as determined by SIR
Meeting listed in IR Quarterly, print (dependent on timing) and online version
An additional 10% discount on additional online and in-print promotional opportunities (if space available). Opportunities can be viewed on SIR's advertising page.

Joint-providership

Through joint providership, SIR will work with you to plan the educational content of your meeting and provide continuing medical education (CME) for physician attendees. SIR will provide accreditation of your CME program for AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™ toward the Physician's Recognition Award of the American Medical Association, program planning templates to ensure your activity is in compliance with ACCME guidelines, and certificates of participation to your learners retrievable through the SIR Learning Center. SIR will not be responsible for the logistical planning of your meeting.

Joint-providership applications must be received by SIR no later that 9 months before the start date of the meeting. Fees are based on the number of credit hours + number of participants provided on the application.
