MedEdWorld is an international health professions community of individuals and educational organisations whose purpose is the sharing of information, ideas, experience and expertise. An extensive redevelopment of MedEdWorld has taken place and MedEdWorld v2 was launched in July 2012.
AMEE-ESME Courses: The AMEE Essential Skills in Medical Education (ESME) courses have been designed to meet the need for doctors, scientists and others involved with teaching in the healthcare professions to have training in teaching. A selection of courses is available covering basic skills in medical education, research in medical education, assessment, elearning and CPD.
