Measuring outcomes: current expectations and practice
Our next webinar will take place Thursday 23 March 2023, 13.00-13.30 CET.

Much is discussed about best practices when it comes to designing education and measuring outcomes, many people are familiar with the theory of Moore’s Outcomes Framework and the “Levels of outcomes”, however what is actually done in practice in Europe? How is it implemented and what are the expectations of education providers and the various stakeholders? What do accreditors require? What do grantors request? Is it OK to just report participation and satisfaction results? Or are providers going deeper into the data they collect?

Our panel will review and discuss some trends they are seeing in Europe and take your questions along the way.
This webinar is for anyone interested in how CME-CPD/IME is developed and presented in Europe. While attending this webinar is free, registration is required.
