CE activities must reflect those areas identified as needing improvement in members’ completed self-assessments, peer assessments, and other areas of interest. In addition, CE activities must relate to manual osteopathy and should enhance members’ professional knowledge base so they can provide the best manual osteopathic care possible to the public of BCAOMP. The new CE two-year period cycle begins on April 1st 2024 until March 31st 2026.
