WriteCME Roadmap Companion Workbook
Hands-On Exercises for Every Stage of Your CME Writing Career
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Put the ROADMAP into practice: 20 hands-on exercises for building the skills and business behind a sustainable CME writing career.
Reading about CME writing is one thing. Practicing it is another. The WriteCME Roadmap Companion Workbook turns the ideas in WriteCME Roadmap into exercises you can work through, apply to your own projects, and return to as your career grows.
Written by Alexandra Howson, PhD, an independent CME/CE writer for 20 years, the workbook follows the seven stages of the ROADMAP:
Research: track CME trends with a curated market trends cheat sheet, map medical education companies and professional societies, and build learner personas.
Optimize: practice the 10-Minute Gap-Spotting habit, write gap statements, rewrite learning objectives, map Entrustable Professional Activities, describe anticipated outcomes, and score a needs assessment with a 35-point rubric.
Adapt: build an activity agenda and plan a portfolio around the CME formats that suit you.
Discover: map your ideal clients and the pain points you can solve.
Maintain: reflect on workload, wellbeing, and business foundations.
Align: define core services, tiered offerings, and retainers, and draft your elevator pitch.
Promote: build your bio, capability statement, portfolio list, testimonials, and content ideas.
It includes worked examples, an answer key for the learning objectives and outcomes exercises, and "Go deeper" notes that point to WriteCME toolkits for each stage. The coil binding lies flat, so you can write comfortably.
Who it's for
Readers of WriteCME Roadmap, new and transitioning CME/CE writers, and healthcare professionals and PhDs moving into medical writing who want structured practice rather than more reading.
