Audience Activity Evaluations

Every NCME activity is accompanied by a detailed participant evaluation that asks participants to rate the following basic aspects of each program:

• Faculty knowledge of subject matter
  
• Appropriateness of teaching strategies
  
• Whether presentations were free of bias
  
• Degree to which presentation provided participant with skills to implement into practice
  
• Learning contract or commitment to make practice changes
  

In addition, NCME collects professional data on each participant, including specialty, type of practice, and years in practice. The user is also asked to participate in a follow-up evaluation to help NCME analyze the impact of a program in clinical practice and on patient outcomes. NCME evaluations also ask for input on topics and faculty for future activities.
