If a live activity is turned into an enduring material, do faculty disclosure and acknowledgement of commercial support still need to be made?

Yes. The new CME activity, must demonstrate compliance with all applicable ACCME accreditation requirements, including faculty disclosure and acknowledgement of any commercial support (SCS 6).

For CME activities including those in which the learner participates electronically (e.g., via Internet, CD-ROM, satellite broadcasts), all required ACCME information, as specified in the Standards for Commercial Support, must be transmitted to the learner prior to the learner beginning the CME activity. All new CME activities released on or after January 1, 2008 must conform to this policy.  Existing CME activities that are reviewed and re-released after January 1, 2008 must conform to this policy.
