This, our 4th SACME Annual Meeting Proceedings Report, attempts to capture the remarkable presentations that were made during the 48th Society for Academic Continuing Medical Education (SACME) Annual Meeting. The goal of this report is to give this meeting a life beyond San Diego and to recognize the impressive talent of our SACME members engaged in CPD research. The content, presented here for the first time in digital format, is now searchable to any CPD professional for future research and learning. As such, the meeting content becomes part of the historic literature and contributes to the universal body of knowledge on these emerging CE-CPD topics of the day.
This report provides you with brief summaries of plenary session presentations, as well as the rich abstracts and posters presented by SACME research members. We hope readers will find this report enjoyable and useful as a reference tool, but also valuable in terms of discovering the many “take-away” pearls to guide or enhance the development of your CPD activities back at your home institution. It’s all here in this convenient, easy to read report.
Since this report is very much a team effort, we want to express our gratitude to Vjeko Hlede, PhD our editorial team colleague responsible for the production of this report in a digital format for the web, as well as our CE News reporters, Holly Harris and Natalie Sanfratello, who authored summaries of our plenary sessions.
Lastly, we welcome your comments and suggestions for making this report a more useful resource for CPD leaders and learners.
