The AMEE Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Committee mission is to advance strategic priorities for CPD that positively impacts health care systems and health outcomes for all. Our approach is building an AMEE CPD global community with the goals to introduce and advance the quality and efficacy of CPD, increase the awareness of CPD's value, support innovation in CPD, promote and facilitate CPD scholarship, and support CPD educators and leaders.

CPD Committee Strategic Goals

  • One of the CPD committees primary goals is to establish AMEE as a global CPD venue.
  • Introduce and advance the quality and efficacy of CPD
  • Increase the awareness of CPD's value
  • Support innovation in CPD

    Our Projects

  • Continue to establish AMEE as a global CPD venue.
  • Finalizing the AMEE CPD-C guide for structure, actions and decisions. In 2021, we elected 6 new members allowing a better international representation.
  • Implementation of a welcome and orientation plan for the new CPD committee members in September 2021.
  • Creation of three task forces aligned to a newly developed CPD Committee strategy: Community of practice, resources and communication.
  • Ongoing communication with the CPD Special Interest Group (SIG) and opportunities for networking and exchange with the CPD Committee members. New in 2022, the CPD Committee invited SIG members to participate on the committee task forces.
  • Planning the 2022 AMEE Annual Conference with a focus on CPD.
  • Preparing a CPD webinar in the spring of 2022.
  • Create a space and curate a virtual community of practice where practitioners and leaders of a CPD speciality can come together to share CPD practices, common concerns, and meet others who work in their field with the goal to fulfil both individual and group goals.
