RSS Guidelines

Remember: You can continue to hold virtual RSS Sessions - See the Frequently Asked Questions - Can RSS activities be live streamed? resource for more information.

We value the important work of the Regularly Scheduled Series (RSS) Coordinators, Course Directors and Planning Committees and recognize your role in educating the healthcare team while ensuring compliance with accreditation criteria. Please review the resources below and contact OCPD if you have questions or need support at rsc@umn.edu. 

All Regularly Scheduled Series (RSS) that are accredited by the University of Minnesota Office of Continuing Professional Development are now managed using the CE Portal. RSS Coordinators will use the RSS Dashboard to manage the administration of their sessions including scheduling, adding speakers, collecting financial disclosures, uploading presentations for peer review if necessary, generating the required flyers, and more. Note that all sessions must be marked as approved a minimum of 24 hours prior to the start of the session to be eligible for credit; credit cannot be awarded retroactively and OCPD does not conduct final reviews during non-business hours.
