Learn about Colorado’s governing bodies for CME
The Colorado Board of Medical Examiners and the Medical Licensure Commission of Colorado are Colorado’s governing bodies for CME and medical license requirements. They are responsible for:

"providing consumer protection through its regulation of over 500,000 licensees, registrants, certificants and permit holders within more than 55 professions, occupations and business in the State of Colorado."

Additional information can be found on their website which includes information pertaining to basic requirements, educational requirements, frequently asked questions, requests for license verification, and more.

All information from Federation of State Medical Boards is subjected to change. It should be verified independently.
