Abstract:
Access to knowledge through the Internet has spawned a world of online learning, stimulating a new passion for lifelong learning in academia, professional environments, the workplace, and at home. This article takes a fresh look at the wide spectrum of opportunities for online medical education for physicians.

We will also look forward to the options likely to change e-learning in the near future and improve physician performance and patient outcomes.
