A preliminary draft for curriculum provision has been drawn up by investigating and researching the training programs for adult-upgraded education in clinical medicine in nine colleges and universities of our country, by using experience of reforms in clinical medicine curriculum from home and abroad for reference, and by integrating the reality of adult education. The writer has made questionnaires by himself on the basis of the above researches.

The program of curriculum provision for the adult-upgraded education in clinical medicine is made up by two platforms, three main modules for curriculum, five sub-modules for curriculum and thirty-three courses. The two platforms refer to the optional courses and compulsory courses. Three modules refer to the common required course module, professional core course module, and professional expansion course module. The five sub-modules refer to the professional basic course module, professional course module, tool-method course module, medical progress course module and professional development course module.
