title: [Diploma of continuing education from the Society of Physician of Thüringia].
abstract: The diploma of continuing medical education (DCME) gives the possibility to describe and document the effort of the physicians to accomplish continuing medical education and quality assurance which is a claim of the professional rules for physicians. Stimulation of the physicians to participate lectures is a further goal of the DCME. The DCME which can't be used as a title, is supposed to be for physicians, who finished their specialisation. Acquisition of DCME is voluntary. For the DCME, the candidates have to participate 100 hours of continuing medical education with given theme setting for 3 years. The DCME represents an useful proof for the fulfilling of the duty of continuing education as well as for evaluation of given lectures.
