ACOEM offers CME for reading selected articles in our peer-reviewed Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine (JOEM). One (1) credit can be earned per article.

To earn credits, you must have an active individual subscription to JOEM for the issue in which the ACOEM Online CME course is offered. The CME activity itself must not be expired.

To access the online exam, after reading the article referenced in the title of this product and purchasing the CME product, login to ACOEM Connect. Go to My ACOEM, then Education and then Access Online Education to complete the online exam and evaluation.

Upon completion of this educational activity, learners should be able to:

• Explain the importance of implementing a workplace intervention to regularly interrupt sedentary time with short bouts of activity, rather than one that simply focuses on reducing total sitting time.
• Explain the challenges of identifying intentional interruptions to sedentary time using both objective accelerometer techniques and self-report methods.
• Explain participant experiences of using the tools contained within the intervention, the challenges they faced, and whether or not interrupting sedentary time every 30 min is realistic within the real-world.

This activity is designed for physicians and other healthcare professionals who specialize in or have an interest in OEM. Advanced practitioners such as industrial hygienists, safety professionals and environmental health specialists will receive value from participating in the activity.
