Medical and scientific publisher Informa Healthcare, UK, has announced that CMEcast, a new audio podcast-based platform for delivering global unaccredited and accredited continuing medical education, is now open to physicians worldwide at http://www.informacmecast.org.
The new service allows users to track all of their CME activities on a free CMEtracker service and encourages user interaction with expert presenters through an 'Ask-the-Expert' feature. The podcasts will offer CMEcast credit and/or credit from one of the major European accreditation organisations (EACCME, EBAC, EBAP, ACOE, etc.).
Informa is launching CMEcast with a four-podcast programme in cardiovascular medicine directed by world-renowned author and researcher Dr. Dimitri P. Mikhailidis of the Royal Free Hospital, London. The first four individual podcasts - featuring Dr. Mikhailidis, Dr. Tony Wierzbicki, Dr. Ioanna Gouni-Berthold and Dr. Devaki Nair - will be available free of charge to site registrants for an introductory period.
The CMEcast platform is adapted from the highly successful CPDcast platform, which provides accredited continuing legal education in the United Kingdom. CPDcast, which was launched in 2007, has attracted over 15,000 registered legal professionals and now offers over 700 podcasts in its library.
