Continuing medical education in Europe: a survey.
The Continuing Medical Education (CME) in Europe Project is conducted by the World Federation for Medical Education, in conjunction with the Association for Medical Education in Europe, the Association for Medical Deans in Europe, and the European Office of the World Health Organization, with Upjohn Medical Sciences Liaison Division. The aim of the Project is to promote the development of CME in all European countries. It also has global relevance: all six Regions participated in initiating the Project, and its progress and outcomes will be generalized to the other five Regions. This Project coordinates information about the important developments in CME in all countries of Europe. In addition to this coordinating function, the Project has a dissemination function, promoting knowledge about good examples and CME experience (demonstration projects) in the countries of Europe. A survey was made of the methods of CME in each country, the informants being the members of the Project's CME Task Force. It consists of nominated representatives from the National Associations for Medical Education of countries in the European Region.
