摘要:The latest publication in the Journal is from North America and is an essay on the putative advantages of provider accreditation in CME. The authors describe their accreditation system in which educational providers apply to a regulatory authority for accreditation of their organisations on the basis of their performance over previous years. If successful, the providers are then free to plan and deliver their CME during the period of their awarded accreditation, which may vary from 2 years for providers considered sub-optimal to 6 years for commended providers.(Published: 12 June 2013)DOI: 10.3109/21614083.2013.809003
