I do not see the value in requiring live ce credits as a condition to renew a license. If the proposal is based on the assumption that the practitioner will learn more or be less inclined to "cheat" then I have to disagree. I feel I get less from listening to a webcast than from a written module where I can go back and review concepts I do not quite understand. Having to attend a planned live program entails added time away from my family and is expensive. Learning is a very different process for different individuals and leglislating a specific medium for all to learn by just makes no sense. Even If I already have the answers for a print course, I still have to read the questions and answers to complete the test; at many of the live events I have attended over the years, I just show up, maybe get something to eat or drink, maybe get to listen to a qualified presenter just to fill out an evaluation form at the end to claim my credit. My online experience often consists of having the program running in the background while I do other work and seldom are required to complete a test that actually quizzes me on the concepts presented. Please reconsider this proposal or at the least require the courses to be them to be free or reasonably priced, available at convenient times and to be free of the biases that are often the result of either a sponsored program or the for profit ce privateers.
