Evaluation of an e-learning CD-ROM

Multimedia CD-ROMs can offer an effective and useful method of supporting continuing professional development.The fact that not all members of the dental team may have access to a posted resource following distribution suggests that online delivery may be preferable.Delivery of learning material by electronic means appears to have a beneficial effect in influencing change in clinical practice.Interactive e-learning resources with inbuilt CPD modules may provide a more interesting way of accessing information in areas not easily delivered by conventional means.
