About the ICEP Learning Portal

How do I create an ICEP Account and Learner Profile?

I don't know if I have a UW NetID, what is that?

UW NetID is a login credential issued by the University of Wisconsin to students, faculty, and staff for the purpose of accessing campus applications and services. If you're not affiliated with the UW, please refer to the instructions above about creating a Professional ICEP Learner Profile. You'll still have access to the full range of ICEP's programming, you'll just use a different login method.

Help! I can't remember my username and/or password!

How do I access a credit letter for a course or download a transcript showing all of my completed activities?

How do I update my state license ID if I'm receiving rejected credit emails?

Looking for information on the Wisconsin Responsible Opioid Prescribing Requirement or wondering whether your most recent course completion will satisfy the requirement?

"For the 2025 renewal, each license holder will be required to take two of the required 30 hours related to prescribing opioids and other controlled substances. These courses must be AMA or AOA Category 1, but no longer require specific approval from the Medical Examining Board. Physicians who do not hold a U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration number to prescribe controlled substances are exempted under the rules." More information can be found on the UW Madison ICEP website (Opens in a new tab)

What is the Medication Access and Training Expansion Act (MATE)?

For Planning Committees and Presenters

I need help submitting my conflict of interest (COI) disclosure, who do I contact?

Conflict of interest disclosure reporting is managed by the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) through a system called Convey. Their contact information is as follows:

I'm in the process of completing my disclosure, but I'm not sure if one of the questions applies to me or not. Who can I contact?

If you have any questions, please contact our office by emailing [email protected] - we're happy to help!

I already submitted my COI disclosure, why am I still receiving emails asking to disclose?

Pursuant to our accreditation guidelines, a new disclosure is required for each activity as different financial interests may be applicable to different activities. For each activity, we are also required to confirm whether or not presenters will be discussing information that is potentially HIPAA non-compliant or considered Off-Label Use of a drug or device. 

What steps do I need to take to ensure the I am presenting fair and balance educational content that supports safe, effective patient care?
