The task of the Competence Centers for vocational training (KW) is to increase the attractiveness and quality of vocational (=post-graduate) training in general practice. For this purpose, they offer, among other things, a structured seminar program for post-graduate trainees in general practice (GP-trainees). During the Covid-19 pandemic the seminar program of the KWBW-Verbundweiterbildung in Baden-Württemberg was converted to digital formats. The goal of the paper is to evaluate the acceptance by the GP-trainees and lecturers, to describe experiences with the conversion to e-learning and to derive recommendations with regard to the future orientation of seminar programs in post-graduate as well as continuing medical education. The implementation was based on a modified Kern-cycle and aimed at offering eight teaching units of 45 minutes each to a large number of GP-trainees. It tried to maintain the high quality of content and education as well as the interactive character of the previous seminars. For this purpose, the events were designed as synchronous webinars (six units) with asynchronous preparation and post-processing (two units) according to the flipped classroom method. The evaluation by the participating GP-trainees and lecturers was performed online using a multi-center developed and pre-piloted questionnaire. N=101 GP-trainees participated in the evaluation of five individual seminar days in the second quarter of 2020 (response rate 97%). 58% (N=59) of the trainees were satisfied or very satisfied with the implementation. 82% (n=83) rated pre-tasks as helpful. 99% (n=100) would participate in an online seminar again. For 52% (n=53) of the trainees, the attitude towards e-learning had changed positively. The main advantages mentioned were no travel, save in time and costs as well as increased flexibility. The main disadvantages mentioned were less personal interaction and technical obstacles. The high acceptance of the new digital format showed the fundamental potential of e-learning in continuing medical education. The experiences can be a source of inspiration for other departments and KW. However, it also shows that important goals of KW, such as the personal interaction of the peer group, could not be achieved. In the future, it is important to develop a suitable mix of presence and digital formats with the aim to improve the attractiveness as well as sustainability of continuing medical education.
该任务的能力中心职业培训 （千瓦） 是增加吸引力和质量的职业培训 （研究生） 培训一般实践。为此，他们提供，除其他外，一个结构化的研讨会计划研究生一般实践 （GP-学员）。在科维德-19 大流行期间，KWBW-Verbundweiterbildung 在巴登-符腾堡州的研讨会计划被转换为数字格式。本文的目的是评估接受的 GP-学员和讲师，描述与转换到电子学习的经验，并借鉴有关未来方向的研讨会计划在研究生以及继续医学教育。执行情况是基于一个修改的 Kern 周期，并旨在提供 8 个教学单位，每个单位 45 分钟，以大量的 GP-学员。它试图保持高质量的内容和教育以及互动的特点，以前的研讨会。为此，活动的设计作为同步网络研讨会 （6 个单位） 与异步准备和后处理 （2 个单位） 根据翻转课堂的方法。通过使用多中心开发和预试点问卷对参与的 GP-学员和讲师进行评估。在 2020 年第二季度，有 101 名 GP-学员参加了五个单独研讨会日的评估 （应答率为 97%）。58%（N=59）的学员对实施感到满意或非常满意。82%（n=83）的学员认为预习任务有帮助。99%（n=100）会再次参加在线研讨会。对于 52%（n=53）的学员来说，对电子学习的态度已经发生了积极的变化。提到的主要优点是没有旅行，节省时间和成本以及增加灵活性。提到的主要缺点是互动较少和技术障碍。新的数字格式的高接受度表明了电子学习在继续医学教育中的基本潜力。这些经验可以为其他部门和千瓦提供灵感。然而，它也表明千瓦的一些重要目标，如同伴群体的个人互动，无法实现。在未来，重要的是要开发一个合适的存在和数字格式的组合，目的是提高吸引力以及可持续性的继续医学教育。
