In the past WFME used to offer advisory visits to accrediting agencies that were preparing for WFME Recognition, institutions that were looking to develop and accrediting function, or medical schools that were preparing for accreditation.
To avoid any actual or perceived conflict of interest, the WFME Executive Council decided that WFME shall no longer offer these services.
WFME will still provide guidance to agencies on matters connected to the WFME Recognition process, but not on the agency's policies and procedures - as this is the subject of the actual WFME Recognition assessment.
If an agency is interested to obtain advice on their policies and procedures in preparation for the WFME Recognition process, WFME will provide a list of experts independent of the WFME who can advise. The agency can make its own choice from this list of experts.
Please, contact WFME at accreditation@wfme.org for more details.
