About Continuing Medical Education (CME)

Vanderbilt University School of Medicine and Vanderbilt University Medical Center recognize a major commitment to the continuous professional development of Vanderbilt and community physicians and others in the health professions. At Vanderbilt, continuing education is considered an important part of the continuum of medical education which is initiated in the undergraduate experience, progresses through graduate medical education, and matures in ongoing continuing medical education and continuing professional development.

The Division of CME provides learning opportunities for physicians and other members of the health care team that will enable them to provide the very best possible care to their patients and perform optimally in their other professional responsibilities as measured by improvements in competence, performance, and patient health status.
