This presentation will address future studies and ways that they can help inform the development strategies and plans for continuing education. The presentation will be interactive with individual and group exercises. It will explain the value and credibility of future studies, conduct a “very “Short course” in future studies and foresight and then discuss the ways futuring techniques can be used to help anticipate both the demand for continuing education and the subjects that are likely to be of interest to students.
