We hope that everyone who attended the 2023 Annual Conference enjoyed the education sessions.  Our team strives to provide relevant topics at each event.

After every event we are always asked about education points and certifications. Information regarding certification can be found on the MAMC Certification Page and on the IIMC website.

The following is a brief review of the different associations, certifications, and education point system.

  • For MiPMC certifications, education points are earned at 1 point per 2 educational hours.
  • For CMC and MMC certifications, education points are earned 1 point per 2 educational hours for an IIMC approved Institute and 1 point per 4 educational hours for a State (MAMC) education program and require the completion and submission of a learning assessment.
