Here at the ICE blog we have previously curated a list of “must reads” for CEs If your reading list is shrinking and you need some new material (in anticipation of summer vacation), today’s post recommends 9 new titles to add to your list.
The Royal College Clinician Educators held their annual retreat last week. As part of our regular faculty development, we held the third annual CEs Read contest. Quoting from the official rule book:
“CEs Read” celebrates literature that is relevant to, and contributes to, a greater understanding of the role of a Clinician Educator. The award acknowledges the vast breadth and depth of health profession education and hence respects that the nominations will represent choices that are diverse in nature. The winning selection is deemed to be essential reading for all Clinician Educators.
