Continuing medical education (CME) as part of life-long learning in medicine should focus on patient outcomes and appropriate care by increasing knowledge, competence and/or performance of clinicians. In this article, we present the views of the different stakeholders on the future of CME, presented at the ISSECAM colloquium held in December 2018. Within the framework of the colloquium, a survey was done asking health care professionals about their learning practices. We present an integrated summary of the attendees’ views and survey results. Key elements for effective learning in CME and how they can be implemented have been identified. Increased interactivity and focus on real-life practice seem to have the highest likelihood to induce behavioural changes. In addition, online CME activities will steadily gain more weight in the learning curriculum of medical practitioners. CME providers should take these elements (interactivity, real-life practice, online) into consideration when designing their different activities. |
