On-Line Faculty Development Courses
When traveling to a conference is not an option, physicians and other health care
providers can keep up with their continuing medical education needs and earn CME credit
from their homes and offices through UTMB-sponsored online CME activities. In response
to the burgeoning interest in CME on the Internet, the UTMB Office of Continuing Education is
pleased to present an ongoing series of high-quality, interactive CME activities that take full
advantage of this exciting new medium. Thanks to unrestricted educational grants from
supporting companies, most of these activities are offered to participants free of charge.
