    AbstractContinuing medical education (CME) credits has been mandated by the National Medical Commission for registered medical practitioners in India as a part of continuing professional development and a minimum of 30 credits in 5 years is required for the renewal of the medical license. Undoubtedly, credit hours for CME attendance is an essential yardstick for professional and career growth, the modus operandi adopted to grant these credit hours needs a serious look. Targeted learning with adequate feedback either with a post CME examination or questionnaire should become the norm and every publication in high impact indexed journal deserve a higher credit point than the rest of the publications.
