Doctors have to do 50-80 hours per year of certified continuing education thingies. That's probably way less than the average software engineer, but at least now we have a concrete number :)
- Thrymr 11y agoThat's formal continuing education. I'd like to see the concrete number for software engineers. There is no similar standard for continued training. Sure, software engineers are always learning new things, and many do so intentionally, but my guess is that the average amount of formal continuing education is far less than doctors.
- turnip1979 11y agoSorry ... have you seen the quality of continuing ed classes for doctors? Clinic decor 101, computer billing systems 101, sign in your hours at the exit, etc.
