CME Credits & Technology used at EAACI (Waytation)

Scan-free automated certification process at the EAACI 2017 congress

Provider of digital solution is company Waytation

3 simple steps on how to automatically collect your CME credits with EAACI CME:

1) Collect your lanyard (with badge) in the registration area

2) Pick up your tag (chip) at the CME Counter and synchronize it with your badge

3) Attend EAACI Scientific Sessions each day and collect your CME credits automatically

Advantages:

✓ No more hand scanning of badges in front of each session room

✓ Additionally, it enables each participant to receive an overview of

each session they personally attended

✓ EAACI will gain valuable insights about the congress programme and exhibition;

This will allow the Scientific Programme Committee to constantly improve future

EAACI congresses and to recognise popular topics amongst all attendees
