Everyone knows the CME lecture is usually a boondoggle. Who’s listening, with all that food?

How many times have you left your family at the beach and eagerly returned to the classroom?

CME has been largely discounted as an educational instrument or as a serious a method of keeping up-to-date. Believing otherwise is an admission to being out-of-date.

The ACCME would do better preserving the financial value of the accreditation in a more cost-effective manner. If the ACCME does not get positively Machiavellian, they have no reason to exist. This kind of activity suggests to me an organization in its death throes, or heading rowards an untimely end.
