Evaluation & Certificates

Quality and Diversity in EAN

The main mission of EAN is to ensure excellence in Neurology. In order to guarantee the quality of the upcoming congresses, we are carrying out a general congress evaluation and evaluation of all individual sessions.  

EAN cares about diversity and asks speakers from different countries to speak at the sessions. Since 50% of EAN’s congress participants are female, it is important for us that there is also a gender balance of speakers. When proposing sessions and speakers for the congress, our panels are asked to include not only famous speakers, but also young rising stars. All feedback given during EAN meetings will be evaluated by our Ethics and Quality Task Force and considered for the next congresses.  

Please help EAN raise the quality of the events and evaluate the sessions. If you have suggestions on how EAN can improve, please contact us via email or visit us at the booth. 

Speaker Evaluation 

Session evaluation provides feedback not only concerning the quality of the sessions, but it is also an assessment of speakers’ performance. It shows if the performance and the presented content were up to the participants’ expectations. Evaluation results, analysed by the Ethics and Quality Task Force, are forwarded in form of individualised reports to the speakers, and allow them to learn about the received feedback and consider it for future lectures. Moreover, speakers’ performance evaluation impacts planning and composition of faculty of future EAN congresses and other educational events. 

General Congress Evaluation

General congress evaluation will be available to all participants from the 2nd day of the congress – please make sure to give us your feedback and fill out the survey via the congress platform under MyCongress/Evaluation.  

Evaluation deadline: Sunday, 21 July 2024, 23:59 EEST. 

Upon submitting the evaluation, a certificate of attendance will be available for download in the “Evaluation & Certificates” area. 

Accreditation 

The 10th Congress of the European Academy of Neurology – Helsinki 2024 is accredited by the University of Helsinki via the KOPI system for theoretical education. 

With the accreditation, the Congress of the European Academy of Neurology (Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday) is designated for a maximum of 24 hours of credits. Each medical specialist should claim only those hours of credit that they actually spent in the educational activity. 

Continuing Medical Education 

All educational and scientific sessions of the 10th Congress of the European Academy of Neurology carry most significant scientific value in medical education for neurologists and shall be recommended for continuing medical education in Neurology.  

During the 10th EAN Congress there will be 55 educational and 37 scientific sessions, amounting to 24 hours of education. 

Therefore, the following number of learning hours are recommended:

Every congress participant will have access to their certificate upon evaluating the attended sessions. The certificate of attendance includes a report of attendance with titles and duration of the evaluated sessions. With the certificate, every participant can address their national medical association concerning the CME points gained. Each medical specialist should claim only those hours of points that they actually spent in the educational activity. Individual national regulations regarding the number of points acknowledged will apply.
