Trauma CME sources?

[Ronald Gross]

Check the ACS website for requirements of MDs working in a trauma center

Is there a good reference out there for where trauma CME credits for physicians in the U.S. can be obtained, especially conferences? Can I ask how some of you obtain your trauma CME credits? I've been told I need to have 30 hours every 2 years (!), not sure where exactly this requirement comes from or how I am going to satisfy it--I'm an emergency physician, not a surgeon, but I do work at a trauma center. If you know of a good website that lists upcoming conferences that offer CME, I'd be grateful! (The Las Vegas meeting sounds good, but Las Vegas itself does not.)

Thanks!
