Continual Professional Education (CPE) plays a major part in ensuring staff maintain and develop their knowledge and skills, however there is little evidence on it's effect on healthcare outcomes. This article reports the results of a study that explored a range of stakeholders' perceptions of CPE on practice.

The articles discusses how managers have a pivotal role creating positive cultures where CPE can flourish.
