Faculty of Medicine, University of New South Wales.

The UNSW School of Medical Education has devised a training program for general practitioners to develop skills as GP facilitators involved with small groups in Continuing Medical Education programs and was offered in 1994. This program was well received by the participants and further developments are under way. Prior research on the most effective CME strategies for general practitioners confirms the value of this approach.
