3 CME Trends to Watch in 2023
In today’s rapidly evolving healthcare environment, professionals need to stay up-to-date with the latest advances to provide optimal patient care. Consequently, continuing medical education (CME) programs also need to keep pace with this dynamic field. Here are some emerging trends we recommend leveraging in your next CME program.
Offer digital/hybrid: Though in-person programs continue to be preferred by many, healthcare professionals (HCPs) are experiencing more administrative burden, staffing shortages, and uncertainty in patient numbers as new COVID-19 waves surge. Digital or hybrid, interactive programs that mimic an in-person experience may help to overcome these barriers, offering HCPs more flexibility and accessibility.
Engage multidisciplinary audiences: CME programs have traditionally been discipline-specific; however, multidisciplinary programs support cross-specialty knowledge-sharing and discussions, to ultimately improve communication and collaboration across healthcare teams.
Personalize learning: Learner-driven content ensures you’re providing your HCPs with content they want and need. Flexible path programs allow your HCPs to navigate through content in the way that suits their learning best. Data analytics can be leveraged to track content performance and ultimately deliver more focused and accessible educational programs.
As the healthcare landscape continues to evolve, CME modalities will continue to adapt to best suit the needs and preferences of healthcare personnel. Reach out to us to know more about how we can help leverage these trends to elevate your learning programs!
