Abstract:
The paper assesses effectiveness of Continuing Medical Education (CME) on the basis of five points: the principles that rule adult learning, the main outcomes of CME, the evidence of effectiveness of CME, the features of an evidence-based residential course and the new Italian CME system in the clinical governance era. The author emphasizes the lack of proof of effectiveness in traditional residential teaching and illustrates the essential features of a workshop finalized to changing the behaviors of the participants: preliminary evaluation of the educational objectives; interaction with the teachers; small working groups; problem-based learning; learning by doing; reinforcement of teaching with other formative problems.
