Abstract:

As a busy healthcare practitioner with a desire to maintain and update professional skills and knowledge, perhaps the study skills you acquired as an undergraduate may need to be updated and refined too. Issues of time management take on a different meaning with the increased pressures of juggling a busy career, home life and continuing professional development. As an undergraduate, your focus was very much on learning the volume of material that was delivered in the medical curriculum but was the idea of learning how to learn ever considered? This article is aimed at identifying some of the strategies that might be helpful in enabling you to make the most effective use of the time available to you for study and thereby ensuring that your learning opportunities are maximised.
