Dr. Stern has been on Faculty for CME AWAY® programs for over 15 years and facilitated over 40 programs for CME AWAY®. He considers himself a facilitator and uses those skills to create highly interactive CME sessions for participants to voice their opinions in a non-threatening atmosphere. CME AWAY® creates an environment that allows participants and their partners to combine vacation and Certified CME by adapting the schedule to balance learning and relaxing.
“Stand out moments on the programs I have attended include networking and meeting physicians and their partners outside of the CME sessions. Sailing into Venice, the sound of Opera Music was flooding the deck, providing an otherworldly experience. When one is relaxed and rested, learning tends be so much more fruitful. These are truly some of the best aspects of learning & travelling with CME AWAY®.”
