In the context of the Engages in Research/Scholarship Criterion, how does the ACCME define “peer-reviewed forum” for sharing scholarly pursuits relevant to CME?

The ACCME considers a peer-reviewed forum to be a mechanism for the dissemination of research related to the effectiveness of CME, in which there is a vetting process that assures that the material being presented is evaluated for its scientific merit by peers in educational research. Examples include peer-reviewed journals or research-focused conferences. Examples of forums we do not consider to be peer-reviewed are newsletters, social media posts, and discussion boards.
