CLOSING THE EDUCATION LOOP
ELM uses problem-based training as our educational approach for health professionals, using case situations to discuss issues and principles as well as examine problems inherent in situations that arise in clinical practice. By using these cases to illustrate negligence or risk, physicians become more aware of sentinel indicators of substandard professional conduct.

To initiate an ELM Interactive Course, the participant is provided with instructions, introduced to the course's method, and guided to the pre-test. Next, the client sequentially cycles through the phases of the learning process. Performance is profiled and Targeted Feedback given for areas of weakness to "close the learning loop" in each topic area. Supplemental Materials and Testing are also provided to supplement deficient performance areas.
