Continuing Medical Education Outcomes are Much More Than Statistical Significance

- PMLiVE

At Medscape Education, we hold ourselves to the highest standards when it comes to analysing our programs. Our approach is unparalleled, employing a precise paired method that ensures we measure the same learners at the beginning and the end of each educational activity. This rigorous methodology provides precision and accuracy in assessing effectiveness.

Katie S Lucero and Don Moore have collaborated in this letter to the Editor of the Journal of CME,  to explain why we need to shine a light on the need for ‘evaluation beyond outcomes’ so the field of CME/CPD can move forward with quality studies that will contribute to improved clinician performance and patient health. And this requires us to look beyond the pooled analysis with a focus on statistical significance to demonstrate educational success.

You can download a full copy of the letter here, or view it online here.
