[CONTINUING MEDICAL EDUCATION AT LAVAL: EXTRA-MURAL PROGRAM (AUTUMN 1964)].
The 1964 fall program of Continuing Medical Education sponsored by Laval University during September and October comprised 55 medical meetings held in 18 regions of the eastern part of the Province of Quebec for the benefit of practitioners. The prerogative of selecting topics rested with the medical board of the regional hospital, together with determination of the time and date of the meeting. The teaching was essentially clinical and practical: presentation of patients, cases or files, followed by a short period of questions and answers, and finally a lecture (30-40 minutes) on an aspect of the selected subject; each meeting lasted at least four hours. A committee appointed by the Faculty of Medicine, Laval University, selected the teacher, co-ordinated the whole program and ensured the quality of the presentation. Attendance varied from 50% to 100% of the doctors in a given region.
