Abstract
Health care professionals are required to participate in continuing education activities to maintain their competency and improve their clinical skills. These educational activities are often developed by medical writers who create the course content and postactivity multiple-choice questions (MCQs). The MCQs align with the learning objectives and assess the learners’ comprehension of the information and their ability to apply the knowledge in a clinical setting. The MCQs also help evaluate the educational outcome of the activity and guide future educational programs. Medical writers can craft high-quality MCQs for continuing education activities by following key recommendations that enhance knowledge and build skills in medical professionals, effectively contributing to improved patient care. This article offers an overview of the recommendations for writing effective MCQs for continuing education activities.
