Mission Statement
Purpose
The CME department derives its mission from Cleveland Clinic's founding mission “to provide better care of the sick, investigation of their problems, and further education of those who serve.” The CME department’s goal is to advance medical knowledge through continuing education that will improve the competencies of physicians and affiliated health care providers through various formats based on high quality continuing education programs addressing in particular, professional practice gaps. These programs at the same time will address the need to improve knowledge and skills to promote better patient outcomes.
