Osler’s Case Review Webinars: Making Measuring Outcomes CPD More Accessible

Finding meaningful activities that fulfil the Measuring Outcomes (MO) requirements of Continuing Professional Development can be a challenge—especially for locums, career medical officers, and doctors in non-clinical roles. Osler’s Case Review webinar series was developed specifically to address this gap.

Why Measuring Outcomes Matters

The Medical Board of Australia requires that doctors dedicate part of their CPD to reviewing the outcomes of the care delivered. Importantly, these activities don’t have to relate directly to a doctor’s own patients. The focus is on learning from outcomes—whether that’s reviewing a case from your own practice, or learning from outcomes observed in other clinical contexts. Activities such as participating in a clinical meeting where patient outcomes are discussed and lessons are drawn from them are valid and valuable ways to meet this requirement.

The Case Review Webinar Model

Osler’s Case Review webinars are designed to simulate just this type of learning opportunity. Each session begins with a presentation of a real clinical case, prompting participants to reflect on how the outcome was shaped by the decisions made. As attendees consider what they might have done in a similar situation, they are encouraged to think critically about their own practice.

From there, interactive elements such as quizzes, polls, and breakout rooms are used to deepen engagement. While the case may be set in a hospital, themes are selected for their broad relevance—issues like handover, communication, or escalation of care are applicable across all areas of practice.

Learning Through Discussion

One of the highlights of each session is the expert panel discussion. Osler brings together clinicians and professionals from other areas of the healthcare system—providing a rich, multidisciplinary perspective on the case. Attendee questions are actively encouraged and moderated for the panel, making the sessions dynamic and participant-driven.

Accessible, Flexible, and Fully CPD-Compliant

Every Case Review session is recorded and available on-demand via Osler. This ensures members who can’t attend live still have access to the same high-quality learning experience. A structured worksheet accompanies each webinar to support reflection and application of learning—this can be uploaded as evidence when claiming 90 minutes of MO time.

Importantly, these webinars are available to all Osler members, not just those subscribed to Osler’s CPD Home. Whether you’re on the live call or watching later, you can fully engage with the material and meet your CPD obligations meaningfully.

Results speak for themselves

Live Case Review sessions consistently reach capacity, with thousands of views on demand after the event, reflecting their popularity and relevance across the profession. Feedback from attendees has been overwhelmingly positive, with our most recent session rated 9.4 out of 10.

If you’re looking for a practical, engaging, and fully supported way to meet your Measuring Outcomes requirement—Osler’s Case Review webinars are ready to deliver.
