Enduring Programs

Enduring materials, such as accredited Q&A monographs, can
be used to extend the life and reach of a variety of successful educational programs. They are designed to reach a large
percentage of the target audience who did not participate in the
original program, and are an effective method for amortizing costs.

Enduring materials may include a CD-ROM or audiotape and a monograph with slides. They should represent the educational
program as closely as possible while still being easy to use.
The CD-ROM technology can include animation and taped vignettes
of speakers and patients. A learning assessment is included for this purpose in the package for CE credits as required.

The content of the printed and recorded components is composed
of the didactic presentation and the Q&A session from the original AudioConference program. Enduring materials are a cost-effective
way to continue disseminating information on key issues. They address the issues of greatest concern to clinicians precisely
because the clinician’s questions during the live program are
presented in the content.

INCE also offers stand-alone self-study materials that include all of the components indicated above.
