β¦ Synopsis
With little fanfare or attention, the leadership of continuing medical education (CME) is shifting from physicians to non-physicians. In this brief article I will examine some of the differences between the physicians and non-physicians who direct CME at medical schools, suggest some reasons for the ongoing shift to non-physicians, identify some of the adjustments that need to be made at medical schools and at national CME organizations, and place the trend in context as part of a much larger shift to nonphysicians directing all levels of medical education. Some empirical information concerning directors of CME at medical schools is available from the biennial survey of the Society of Medical College Directors of Continuing Medical Education (SMCDCME). The most recent survey was done in early 1990 and requested information about the individual in direct charge of the school's CME activities. Relevant data from the 65 responding medical schools in the United States and Canada are summarized below:
