GUIDELINES FOR CE ARTICLE SUBMISSIONS

Anyone who has submitted a continuing education article that is published in SYNERGY
is eligible for NAMSS approved CEUs. The article must be a continuing education article
that addresses an issue or topic covered in the certification examinations for the CPMSM
or CPCS, and must be at least 1,500 words. The author must also include 10 True/False
questions and answers that relate clearly and directly to the article’s content. Qualified
articles should be sent to the SYNERGY managing editor. Request for CEUs must be made
in writing and accompany the article. Upon receipt of the article, it will be determined
whether or not the article meets the criteria. If it does, it will be forwarded to the editor
of SYNERGY for eligibility confirmation. Once eligibility has been confirmed, the editor
will send a copy to the Academic and CEU team leader to determine the number of
CEUs to be awarded. A maximum of three CEUs for each accepted article can be granted
in this manner. The editor will notify the author of the article in writing of the number of
CEUs awarded. CEUs will not be granted on a retroactive basis. If the article does not
meet the criteria for awarding CEUs, the editor will notify the author of the article in
writing. CE articles appear in the order in which they are received, unless content is
deemed time-sensitive by the editor.
