A district branch survey on attitudes toward obligatory continuing medical education (CME) and mandatory recertification indicated that most respondents approved the concept of lifelong learning. However, proposed methods of implementation of CME were criticized on grounds of commercialization, bureaucratization, poor quality, wasting time and money, excessive external control over learning, and flawed requirements. Objections to mandatory recertification centered mainly on an abhorrence of Board-type examinations. The author offers suggestions to program directors and sponsors, educational researchers, and CME administrators as to ways to answer these criticisms of CME and recertification.
一项关于对强制性继续医学教育（CME）和强制重新认证态度的地区分会调查表明，大多数受访者认可终身学习的理念。然而，继续医学教育的提议实施方法因商业化、官僚化、质量差、浪费时间和金钱、对学习的外部控制过度以及要求存在缺陷而受到批评。对强制重新认证的反对主要集中在对委员会式考试的厌恶上。作者就如何回应这些对继续医学教育和重新认证的批评，向项目主任和主办方、教育研究人员以及继续医学教育管理人员提供了建议。
