Download or read book Redesigning Continuing Education in the Health Professions written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2010-02-12 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today in the United States, the professional health workforce is not consistently prepared to provide high quality health care and assure patient safety, even as the nation spends more per capita on health care than any other country. The absence of a comprehensive and well-integrated system of continuing education (CE) in the health professions is an important contributing factor to knowledge and performance deficiencies at the individual and system levels. To be most effective, health professionals at every stage of their careers must continue learning about advances in research and treatment in their fields (and related fields) in order to obtain and maintain up-to-date knowledge and skills in caring for their patients. Many health professionals regularly undertake a variety of efforts to stay up to date, but on a larger scale, the nation's approach to CE for health professionals fails to support the professions in their efforts to achieve and maintain proficiency. Redesigning Continuing Education in the Health Professions illustrates a vision for a better system through a comprehensive approach of continuing professional development, and posits a framework upon which to develop a new, more effective system. The book also offers principles to guide the creation of a national continuing education institute.

This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lifelong learning has become essential not only for professionals, but also for those they serve. Continuing professional education (CPE), an umbrella term used to describe the continuum of formal, nonformal, and informal learning opportunities that enable practicing professionals to continue to learn and to maintain professional competence across their careers, is the focus of this collection. The volume explores, analyzes, questions, and critiques CPE trends and issues across a variety of contexts, and it highlights new thinking and developments to assist providers and practitioners to re-envision their roles and set new directions in the field of CPE. This collection is inspired by the early seminal works of Cyril Houle who advocated that educational researchers and providers of CPE should listen to the experience of professionals as a basis for supporting their professional learning.

This book was released on 2024-03-06 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health professionals grapple with a critical challenge: the traditional Continuous Medical Education (CME) model falls short of fostering the unique skills and self-directed learning required for a dynamic career. As medical practitioners navigate a world of new epidemiological models, technologies, and strategies, the need for a transformative solution becomes evident. The Lifelong Learning Journey of Health Professionals: Continuing Education and Professional Development is a book that not only identifies the limitations of existing education models but also provides a comprehensive solution for ushering in a new era of lifelong learning. This compelling book advocates for a paradigm shift towards Continuous Professional Development (CPD), a contemporary concept that embraces non-traditional learning formats. It dismantles the inadequacies of credit-based training by emphasizing the importance of self-direction and self-assessment for adult learners. From core principles for designing a robust CPD system to exploring successful models, alternative credentials, and the role of learning communities, the book offers a holistic approach to reshaping medical education.
