Record Attendance by Text Message

For live courses and McLean’s Grand Rounds lectures series, you may be asked to “text attendance” to check in to the activity.

  1. If you haven’t done this before, follow the one-time instructions below to pair your smartphone with McLean CloudCME
  2. Prior to or at the activity, you will be given the activity code
  3. Text this code to 617.313.2688 to record your attendance for the activity
  4. You will receive a text to verify that your attendance has been recorded

Your text message must be sent during the activity (or in the brief grace period right before and after the scheduled start and end times).

Note: You may receive a reply text asking you to perform any missing steps (for example, filling in missing information on your profile form or completing registration). If you get one of these messages, you will need to text the code again after you complete the needed steps.

If you have received the attendance confirmation text, you have been checked in to the event.

Pair Your Phone for Texting Attendance

Text the email address you use to login to CloudCME to this number: 617.313.2688.

Note: this must be the same email address that is found in your profile form (and used to login to McLean CloudCME).

CloudCME will capture your phone number and link it to your account. You will receive a confirmation text.

Pro tip: Save this number in your contacts so it’s handy for your next McLean CE event!

Record Attendance by QR Code

For some live events, you may be able to check in to the activity via a QR code. You must have the CloudCME mobile app to record your attendance via QR code.

See instructions above to get the app.

If an event is using QR code for check in:

  1. Open the app
  2. Select Scan QR Attendance from the app menu
  3. Prior to or at the activity, you will be given the activity QR code
  4. Scan the QR code
  5. A message will display after the QR code has been scanned indicating attendance has been successfully recorded

Note: You may need to allow the app access to the phone’s camera. Your phone will indicate if this is needed.

Evaluations and Certificates

Following an activity and if your attendance has been recorded (see above), the evaluation will be available to you.

  1. Go to Evaluations and Certificates
  2. Here you can complete evaluations or view or email certificates for activities already completed
  3. To access the evaluation, click the Complete Evaluation button
  4. Complete the evaluation fully and click Submit
  5. Certificate/s are available once the evaluation is complete

Grand Rounds Attendees

When you attend McLean Grand Rounds (either live at Pierce Hall or via livestream), registration is not required.

However, you must check in to receive credit. There are 3 ways to check in:

  1. Text message: Each week a distinct code will be generated for Grand Rounds. Once you have linked your phone number by texting your email address (you only need to do this one time), you can mark your attendance by simply texting the weekly code to the same phone number (617.313.2688). Pro tip: Save this phone number to your contacts to make it easy to check into Grand Rounds each week.
  2. Download the mobile app and scan a QR code, which will be posted on the doors. See the info above for further instructions to download the CloudCME mobile app.
  3. See the event staff to check in.

Please note that attendance can only be recorded 15 minutes prior to the activity start time, during the activity, and up to 15 minutes after the activity closes.

After recording your attendance and following the conclusion of the talk, an evaluation will be available for that talk in your portal. Complete the evaluation to receive a CE certificate in your “Evaluations and Certificates“ section.
