The rapid appearance of new treatment techniques, public demand for psychiatric expertise in increasingly broader areas of social and community concern, and the current information explosion in all fields have contributed to recent interest in programs of continuing education for psychiatrists. Major guidelines have not yet been established, however, and this author examines such questions as who shall have major responsibility for postresidency programs, what shall be included, and how shall practicing psychiatrists be motivated to take part.
