Radiographers are motivated to pursue continuing professional education (CPE). A survey revealed that motivational orientation and personal factors significantly influence CPE participation among radiographers.

Area of Science:

  • Radiologic technology
  • Healthcare education
  • Professional development

Background:

  • Continuing professional education (CPE) is crucial for maintaining radiographer competency.
  • Assumptions about radiographer motivation for voluntary CPE participation require examination.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the motivational factors influencing radiographers' voluntary participation in continuing professional education.
  • To identify professional, educational, and personal characteristics associated with CPE engagement.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was conducted among radiographers across 22 hospitals in Central Florida.
  • Data collected included motivational orientation, professional, educational, and personal characteristics.

Main Results:
