Using knowledge based exams to identify areas of weakness and then seeking formal or informal opportunities to address those identified learning issues Openness to learning beyond the traditional lecture experience Small group interactive sessions, either formal or informal Critical journal reading with post test, either alone or in a group Interactive computer programmed learning with assessment Individually arranged study Personal commitment to ask questions and find answers for implementation at the point of care. Maintenance of Competence Prog Maintenance of Competence Programs rams, Performance in practice assessments Are you doing what you say or think you are doing?
