Members Needs Assessment Survey

Purpose: The CCPS CME Committee, as a functioning committee of CCPS, has as its goal the provision of educational activities in order to maintain and improve the clinical competency and performance of its members, mandated by the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) as a necessary component of maintenance of certification, in compliance with the Essentials and Standards of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME).

Target audience: Psychiatrists, psychiatric members-in-training (MIT), other physicians, and associated healthcare providers.

Content areas: The research, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of psychiatric disorders.

Types of activities provided: An annual conference consisting of plenary didactics, case presentations, panel discussions and workshops (Element 2.1).

Expected results: To maintain, develop, or increase the knowledge and skills (competence) as well as professional performance and relationships that a psychiatrist uses to provide services for patients, the public and/or the profession. A CME activity will be considered successful should a significant proportion of learners participating in each activity report an important learning outcome they intend to incorporate into their practice (Element 2.1).

Thank you for participating in this survey. This is your opportunity to inform the Annual Meeting and CME Committee of your educational needs, so that we are able to plan the best speakers for the most relevant topics that will make a difference in your practice of medicine and psychiatry. While you have the option of not completing any question, please know that access of this survey will be limited to the Annual Meeting and CME Committee members, and individual information will not be distributed outside of the committee.
