Continuing education in general practice in England and Wales.
In 1970, a random sample of 9.5 per cent of general-practitioner principals in England and Wales were asked about continuing education; 53 per cent of them replied. Respondents preferred long intensive courses, thought that dissemination of information about national courses was defective, and the 32 per cent who required a locum before they could attend a course had difficulty in obtaining one. Local educational activity is enhanced by the presence of a postgraduate medical centre.
