We are
excited to announce that we have updated our continuing education opportunities
for CDC’s U.S. Medical Eligibility
Criteria for Contraceptive Use, 2016 (U.S. MEC) and U.S. Selected Practice Recommendations
for Contraceptive Use, 2016 (U.S. SPR). The slide presentations can be
used by health care providers who want to increase knowledge about the U.S.
MEC, U.S. SPR, and teen pregnancy and/or earn continuing education
credits.

The U.S. Medical Eligibility Criteria for
Contraceptive Use, 2016 (U.S. MEC) provides guidance on the use of specific
contraceptive methods by women and men who have certain characteristics or
medical conditions. The U.S. Selected Practice Recommendations for Contraceptive
Use, 2016 (U.S.
SPR) provides recommendations for common, yet sometimes complex, management
issues in initiating and using contraceptive methods.
CDC has
developed three continuing education activities found on the Training for Providers webpage:
- Slide Set and Continuing Education Opportunity: US Medical Eligibility Criteria for Contraceptive Use, 2016 (U.S. MEC)
- Slide Set and Continuing Education Opportunity: U.S. Selected Practice Recommendations for Contraceptive Use, 2016 (U.S. SPR)
- Slide Set and Continuing Education Opportunity: Teen Pregnancy Prevention: Application of CDC’s Evidence-Based Guidance
For
