Abstract
The Norwegian Association of General Practitioners has adopted a method for postgraduate education in general practice called exchange practice visit. This article presents the method, which is a simplified version of the procedure described in the booklet, What sort of doctor, from The Royal College of General Practitioners in England. We have tested this way of education, and describe our experiences of it. We conclude that an exchange practice visit is an important supplement to the training of general practitioners, and provides a good tool for quality assurance in medicine.
