Today's CME programs are mainly in lecture format and lack the hands-on learning experience that is so important in acquiring the skills connected with current technologic innovations. To fill this void, we have developed the life-size Endovascular Training Model, which can be used to practice various endovascular procedures. The model has been used in two CME courses with positive results. We present this model as a useful educational tool in vascular surgery CME courses.
