Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS) Announces 2026 Physician Continuing Education Audit

The MEB will use a technology platform called CE Broker to complete continuing education audits. On May 26, 2026 physicians selected for audit will receive an official, DSPS-customized notice from [email protected]. This email from CE Broker will inform them they have been randomly selected for an audit of their Continuing Medical Education (CME). It will also include helpful instructions about how to complete the audit. This communication from CE Broker is legitimate and authorized by the MEB and DSPS.

The email from CE Broker will include a link to your account to submit your information. Once materials have been submitted and reviewed, you will receive one of two responses:

·       a message that you have passed the audit or

·       a message requesting further information

The deadline to submit your CME information is July 20, 2026.
