Background:

Distance continuing education (DCE) is crucial for health professionals.
Assessing satisfaction with DCE programs is vital for program improvement.
Understanding demographic influences on DCE satisfaction can enhance accessibility and effectiveness.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess satisfaction levels among health professionals in a DCE program.
To identify differences in satisfaction based on gender, ethnicity, discipline, and community size.
To explore the impact of socioeconomic and demographic factors on DCE program satisfaction.

Main Methods:

A one-group posttest design was employed.
A large sample (n=45,996) of health professionals participated.
Program satisfaction was measured using a validated instrument (Cronbach's alpha = 0.91).

Main Results:

Overall high satisfaction was reported (mean score = 4.44/5).
Men, African-Americans, Hispanics, dental professionals, and those in larger urban communities reported higher satisfaction.
Nurses and physicians showed greater satisfaction in applying knowledge to patient care.

Conclusions:

Socioeconomic and demographic factors significantly influence satisfaction with DCE programs.
Tailoring DCE programs to diverse populations may improve engagement and outcomes.
Further research should explore specific reasons for satisfaction disparities.
