Abstract:
Continuous professional development (CPD) in health care refers to the process of lifelong learning including the acquisition of new competencies, knowledge, and professional growth throughout the career of a health care professional. Since implementation, there has seen little change or innovation in CPD. This perspective will review the current state of CPD, including the challenges in traditional CPD models, foundations and strategies for redesign to meet the needs of current and future physicians, and suggestions for changes to modernize CPD. Precision education and the use of technology, including artificial intelligence, and their application to CPD will be discussed.
