This session will review the results of multiple survey studies to further understand clinicians’ attitudes toward SDM as well as their practical use of SDM tools.

This learning lab will teach participants how physicians’ stages of learning impact their ability to change behavior and when these changes are likely to occur, using the viewpoints of both CME professionals and a practicing oncologist.

This session will provide an overview of some trends and realities, with Medical Specialty Societies, Industry, Accrediting bodies and governments, related to the implementation of quality and relevant learning and education interventions, that will impact better clinical delivery and patient care.

Join us for a case study discussion that summarizes an innovative approach to designing, implementing, and evaluating CME/CE activities that effectively leverages and combines several theories of behavior change, including the Transtheoretical Model of Behavior Change, Diffusion of Innovation, and an approach centered on “Bright Spots” (i.e., replicating behaviors being performed in clinical environments in which success is being achieved).

The speakers an Indian living in the US, a medical doctor from Uruguay and a Swiss working around the globe provide insight into the process of how culturally diverse teams can develop organizational structures, systems and educational activities that fit the needs of their culturally diverse learners and ultimately their patients.

In this workshop, it will be contended - and participants will be able to argue for or against - that massive online courses are going to disrupt the CME landscape and become an integral component of how continuing medical education is delivered globally in the next five years: While live events and short online offerings would continue, massive online courses are likely going to become a significant component, in terms of the percentage of time that each healthcare professional dedicates to learning.

Cultural sensitivity is one of our most important skills in a globalizing world of medical education. The speakers an Egyptian living in Qatar and a Swiss working around the globe provide insight into the process of recognizing the importance of cultural diverse situations and challenges when working as healthcare teams and its impact on patient outcomes and satisfaction.
