Phil R. Manning "Can you prove that continuing education really
makes any difference?" Over the years, educators concerned with
continuing education (CE) for health professionals have either
heard or voiced that question in one form or another more than
once. But because of the difficulty in measuring the specific
effects of a given course, program, or conference, the question has
not been answered satisfactorily. Since CE is costly, since CE is
now mandated in some states for re-registration, and since its
worth has not been proven in for mal evaluation research, the
pressure to evaluate remains strong. The question can be partially
answered by a more careful definition of continuing education,
particularly the goals to be achieved by CEo Another part of the
answer depends on the development of a stronger commitment to
evaluation of CE by its providers. But a significant part of the
answer might be provided through the improvement of methods used in
evaluation of continuing education for health professionals. To
address this last concern, the Development and Demonstration Center
in Continuing Education for the Health Professions of the Univer
sity of Southern California organized and conducted a meeting of
academi cians and practitioners in evaluation of continuing
education. During a three-day period, participants heard formal
presentations by five invited speakers and then discussed the
application of the state of the art of educa tional evaluation to
problems of evaluation of continuing education for health
professionals."
