Continuing education--a new approach.
Many teachers of general practice in this country and abroad have called upon colleagues in practice to take upon themselves a larger share of continuing education within this branch of the profession.One response to this call, reported in this article, was a five-day intensive course for 29 established general practitioners, held at the Eastbourne Postgraduate Medical Centre, 1980. The course was planned entirely by a team of seven general practitioners who had gained their teaching experience as vocational training course organizers. The course and its evaluation are described. We offer it as a new approach to continuing education which some of our general practitioner colleagues may prefer to conventional courses, but we do not suggest that our approach should replace well-tried and successful methods.
