Abstract

There was a renewed vigour among the participants attending the 16th Annual European CME Forum (#16ECF), which took place in the Hague, the Netherlands from 8-10 November 2023. This emanated from the meeting having reverted to an in-person format to promote engagement among attendees. The meeting was subdivided into three main sections to address this year's theme "Voices in CME-CPD": 1) Listening to others; 2) Listening to ourselves; 3) Listening to each other. The Forum unofficially began with the pre-meeting sessions led by two special interest groups and was then formally opened by the programme director. There were panel discussions on designing and implementing CME-CPD programmes, measuring and reporting outcomes, and valuing and defining independence, as well as smaller workshop and breakout sessions led by international presenters. Representatives for the presented on the 2023 Special Collection of articles, with this year's topic "Expanding the voices in CME-CPD" mirroring the meeting theme. Participants interacted with providers, accreditors and grantors, as well as poster authors and a local physician who attended to share a learner's perspective. The meeting concluded with the now familiar "CME unsession" to ensure everyone's voices were heard and no one left the meeting with any unanswered questions.
