CBI’s 8th Annual Forum continues its tradition of bringing together the industry’s leading experts in CME. There are many issues surrounding the design, development, implementation, evaluation and funding of CME activities and this meeting is designed to address these issues in an interactive setting. Presentations feature a combination of best practice descriptions, interactive discussions and views of what the future of CME will be.
