JA is the first and only process in the world offering this benefit.<\/p>\n<p>The JA has expanded its CE reach to include the athletic training profession. As a result, this opportunity is available to you as a BOC Approved Provider.<\/p>\n<p>Jointly accredited providers may choose to award single profession or interprofessional continuing education credit (IPCE) to Athletic Trainers (ATs) and other health care professionals, as our standards align.<\/p>\n<p>The BOC is now working in collaboration with JA with the goal to provide the benefits of a unified accreditation process that will support the efforts of providers serving ATs to deliver high-quality, effective CE.<\/p>\n<p>Making this move can help you:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Expand your reach to ATs and other health care professions \u2013 separately or together<\/li>\n<li>Increase operational efficiencies, saving time, money and resources<\/li>\n<li>Gain visibility and credibility \u2013 use the JA mark in promotional materials<\/li>\n<li>Increase program value, quality and integrity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can choose to apply for joint accreditation; if you achieve it, you will have the option of adding the BOC, for $1,500 per year; this fee is in addition to the <a href=\"https:\/\/jointaccreditation.org\/fees\">fees<\/a> for application and accreditation. As a result, the BOC annual fee and annual report requirement will be waived, but your organization will retain standing as a BOC Approved Provider. As such, you will still have access to the new BOC program directory targeting 55,000 ATs to promote your offerings.<\/p>\n<p>Jointly accredited CE providers must meet rigorous standards for educational quality and independence \u2013 including the &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.accme.org\/accreditation-rules\/standards-for-integrity-independence-accredited-ce\">Standards for Integrity and Independence in Accredited Continuing Education<\/a>.&#8221; With the joint accreditation initiative, we seek to assure the public that health care teams receive education that is designed to be independent, free from commercial bias, based on valid content and effective in improving the quality and safety of care delivered by the team.<\/p>\n<p>As a JA Provider you will use the JA accreditation statement located here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jointaccreditation.org\/accreditation-statement-logos\">https:\/\/www.jointaccreditation.org\/accreditation-statement-logos<br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>With this collaboration, JA includes 10<br \/>\nprofessions, supporting educators in delivering high-quality, effective IPCE<br \/>\nthat demonstrably improves interprofessional collaborative practice and patient<br \/>\ncare.
