title: STAR Day: one hospital's solution to educational challenges.
abstract: To answer the challenge of 24-hour staffing coupled with required contact hour requirements, an all-day educational program is offered to all 1,300 employees of this suburban Level II trauma center. Providing flexible session attendance options while retaining the advantages of interpersonal adult learning make this a useful option for the continuing education of hospital staff.
