Abstract
A questionnaire sent to the departments of psychiatry of the colleges of medicine in the United States revealed that 82% of responding colleges felt that continuing psychiatric education is the responsibility of the medical schools. Since 62% of the colleges responded, this represented about 52% of all American medical schools. Only 19 responding colleges were offering such courses at the time, and five more of them had such courses in preparation. Most respondents felt that a preparatory period of advance preparation via advertising and notices addressed to the practicing psychiartists should precede the offering of the courses and would substantially improve the response. There seemed to be little question in the minds of our respondents that there is a need for postgraduate psychiatric education.
