The Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center CME Program sponsors a range of activities including courses directed primarily at non-staff physicians, which may offer hands-on skill training, and regularly scheduled conferences directed to specific groups of specialists on the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center staff, and offered to the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center regional networks through video-conferencing technology. Also recognized as methods of providing the community of practicing physicians with information in a practical, expeditious and productive manner are enduring materials and Internet/Web-based programs and publications. The expected results are the enhancement of professional knowledge with the immediate goals of stimulating new research ideas and improving patient care and treatment outcomes.
