Requests for product that will be used at third-party educational conferences or programs for healthcare professionals should be made on the Cook Product Donations for Third-Party Educational Use application.

These grants are for use by educational institutions, professional societies, or other third parties to request financial support for educational conferences, seminars, or professional society meetings that they are organizing.

Cook Medical is not permitted to support educational conferences or programs that are organized by healthcare institutions that restrict attendance to their own healthcare professionals who are not in training. (Grants cannot be used for exhibit fees or other fee-for-service arrangements.)

• The meeting must be bona fide educational, scientific, or policymaking.
• The meeting must promote scientific knowledge, medical advancement, and the delivery of effective healthcare.
• The meeting must be independent of Cook Medical, meaning Cook Medical cannot select speakers or control content, methods, or materials.
• The meeting must follow the criteria established by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to avoid losing continuing medical education accreditation.

Requests for third-party conferences or educational institutions for grants to provide scholarships to HCPs-in-training should be made on the Conferences Grants for HCP-in-Training application.

These grants are for products that will be used at third-party educational conferences or programs for healthcare professionals. Cook Medical cannot control the program content. (These product donations cannot be used for Cook Medical-organized product training or for institutions that are training their own staff only.)

• Non-stock items
• Custom-made items
• Items that will be used or demonstrated for use in an off-label indication
• Not approved and licensed for sale in the country where the product will be used
• Products that require a pharmaceutical license

These grants are for an educational institution or professional society that wishes to support the educational advancement of healthcare-professionals-in-training (HCPs-in-training), defined as medical students, interns, residents, fellows, and nursing students. The requesting institution or society is responsible for selecting the beneficiaries of the grant. Some governments and institutions have their own requirements for making these selections.

Keep the following things about educational grants in mind:

• Educational grants are provided to training institutions or conference sponsors to support healthcare professionals who are in training and who have been selected by the training institution or conference.
• Educational grants will be given only for the support of legitimate expenses for bona fide educational activities.
• Grants must be consistent with conference standards

Note: Cook Medical cannot review applications that are submitted by individual HCPs-in-training or provide grants for education directly to HCPs-in-training. Institutions must apply for educational grants.

These grants are for accredited fellowship or residency programs offered by healthcare institutions for HCPs-in-training (defined as medical students, interns, residents, fellows, and nursing students). The requesting institution or society is responsible for selecting the beneficiaries of the grant. Some governments and institutions have their own requirements for making these selections.
