A new model for surgical skills training

Very good article just published in the New England Journal of Medicine "Teaching Surgical Skills — Changes in the Wind". The authors discuss the Fitts–Posner Three-Stage Theory of Motor Skill Acquisition as well as several training and assessment models. All good stuff for CME Providers to be well versed in, especially in light of the new ACCME accreditation criteria.
