Our goal
CME-CPD Academy is an independent educational CME platform for online learning dedicated to the delivery of high-quality, evidence-based continuing education for healthcare professionals. We aim to improve professional practice, and ultimately patient outcomes, through the provision of digital eLearning and live events, as well as clinical resources and online tools.
Who are we?
CME-CPD Academy is the online educational platform of Siyemi Learning – an independent CME provider based in Manchester, UK. The goal of Siyemi Learning is to provide effective, innovative and balanced continuing education that empowers physicians and other members of the interprofessional team, and educators, to improve their professional practice.
In 2015, Siyemi Learning earned the distinct achievement of becoming the first CME provider based outside of the US to be accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) and succeeded in being reaccredited in 2017.
Siyemi Learning currently remains the only ACCME-accredited provider in Europe. As such, Siyemi Learning is uniquely positioned to develop and deliver CME-certified education to global healthcare professionals through CME-CPD Academy.

Our comprehensive programmes are designed using advanced adult learning principles in order to ensure that professional practice gaps are identified, addressed, and closed.
We measure the effectiveness of all of our activities to gauge their success and to inform our future programmes. We are also committed to publishing our outcomes to move the field of CME-CPD forward by establishing best practices in accredited education.
