One of the goals of the Office of CEPD is to advance research in continuing education, fostering two of our key values – life-long learning and critical inquiry and scholarship.
The Office has established itself as a knowledge hub for the research, design and delivery of innovative, accredited, outcome-based continuous learning experiences for healthcare professionals – to enable the delivery of Better Education for Better Outcomes™. We recognize the importance of leveraging innovative education techniques and drawing upon research to accelerate knowledge transfer and enable healthcare professionals to make better decisions around the care and treatment of their patients – and ultimately drive improved health outcomes.
It is effective, outcome-based course program design and delivery that converts learning into action, to address priority health issues. Through our knowledge hub, Course Directors have access to key research, which ensures that important health issues and learning best practices are identified, understood and addressed in program design and delivery. We believe that better teaching leads to better learning, and in turn better care being delivered – in other words, improved health outcomes for patients.
