Which CE activity is described as credit awarded for articles or books in editorially reviewed media?

• A. Board of Dentistry meetings.
• B. Publishing an article in approved subject areas.
• C. Lectures at CODA-accredited schools.
• D. Anesthesia inspection consulting.

Answer: (B)

The concept here is that continuing education credits can come from scholarly publishing that undergoes editorial or peer review. Publishing an article in approved subject areas in a venue that uses editorial review demonstrates you contributed new knowledge or a synthesis of evidence to the profession, and that this work has been vetted by experts. Because of that validation and public dissemination of knowledge, it counts toward CE requirements.

That makes publishing an article in approved subject areas the best fit. The other activities—attending board meetings, giving lectures at accredited schools, or providing anesthesia inspection consulting—do not describe earning CE credit for producing articles or books in editorially reviewed media.
