BHRS Accreditation
Welcome to the BHRS accreditation system. This is a system whereby you can achieve re-accreditation using a points-based scheme instead of sitting exams. Points are awarded in several different areas including conferences attended, training completed, and papers written.
The BHRS accreditation system is available to BHRS / EHRA / IBRHE accredited members.
Starting the process
Before proceeding to the main system, you must upload your accreditation certificate.
Once you have uploaded your certificate you can proceed to collect points in your accreditation diary. You need a minimum of 25 points to be re-accredited, and points are awarded in the following ways: Events; Papers; Implants; and Custom. These are listed in separate categories at the top of the first page. By clicking on each category you will be able to enter the relevant information. Supporting documentation is essential.
You will notice a “home” symbol on the top left of your screen. Clicking on this will take you to the front page of your diary at any time.
Events:
Event points are awarded for conferences attended or training received. Points are allocated on how long the event was. When you click on this category you will be taken to an index of pre-listed events. You are able to search for any conference or training that you have attended in a number of different ways. First of all, at the top, there is a choice of year. Once you have selected the correct year there is a dropdown box which will allow you to filter by company. Using the ADD button on the right will take you to that event where you can check the details are correct. You will be able to see on the right-hand side how many points will be awarded for each event. If it is a multiday event you will be able to add how many days you attended. It is essential that you upload your supporting document to prove your attendance on this screen. When that is done, click SUBMIT, and move on to the next item to record.
If you think we have missed an event, let us know using the “suggest an event” form. Please note, that events must be within the last 5 years and relevant to cardiology and arrhythmia.
Papers
The second category PAPERS allows you to upload any information about papers or books that you have published. Please be aware that you will only be awarded points if you are the first author. On this screen, you will be asked to add the title, date, description, journal of publication, and authors. Papers are awarded 5 points.
Implants
You can achieve 5 points by showing that you have achieved the BHRS recommended guidelines for implants in three of the last 5 years.
Custom
If you have organised an event, or done something which you believe should give you BHRS points, you can submit the details here and it will be evaluated by the accreditation committee.
Submitting
Once you have accumulated 25 points, you can submit your diary to us and we will evaluate it.
