title: Guidelines for the CME moderator.
abstract: Although an essential part of the continuing medical education program, the moderator is seldom mentioned in the literature when program preparation and evaluation are discussed. One result of such neglect could be the perception of the moderator as one who merely introduces the speaker and monitors the time and questions. The purpose of this article is to provide some useful guidelines that should enable the Moderator to become more cognizant of the role and responsibilities. Such guidelines are especially essential for the moderator at a National Assembly where the program planner may not always be readily available.
