eakouts, with members chosen to ensure that each group included a broad spectrum of disciplines and backgrounds. In each discussion group, a facilitator guided discussion and a note-taker recorded key discussion points. After each breakout session, the three discussion groups came back together and facilitators reported on their group’s outcomes.

Recommendations were organized into three categories: (1) policy recommendations; (2) practice guidelines; and (3) research needs. Because many authors had similar License Policies Workshop Proceedings-- 6
ecommendations, when appropriate, the workshop managers combined recommendations, taking some liberty to clarify and simplify the wording of the recommendations. Discussion group participants were asked to reach consensus on each recommendation in terms of both priority (high, medium, or low) and the timeframe over which the recommendation could or should be implemented (short-term or longterm). Participants were also asked to identify additional recommendations that they considered important. The final breakout session on elements of model licensing systems was designed to build on the outcomes of the discussion from the first day of the workshop and was therefore conducted differently than the previous breakout sessions. Prior to the final breakout session, participants were provided with a summary of the Day 1 breakout sessions. This was followed by presentations focusing on the outcomes of the three previously held events on licensing mentioned earlier. Participants were asked to identify important elements of model licensing systems. After the final session, the facilitators reported back to the workshop on the system elements generated by their group. These were written on flipcharts and discussed by all workshop participants. The 10-4 Method was used to prioritize the consensus system elements; each workshop participant was given 10 sticker dots, which he or she could use to vote for his or her top choices on the flipcharts, and each participant could put no more than four stickers on any single element. The total number of votes indicated the relative priority the workshop placed on each element. After the meeting, the workshop managers synthesized the overall results, based on the written outcomes of individual breakout sessions and discussion groups, as well as notes taken during the breakout and plenary sessions. To ensure that more nuanced areas of agreement and disagreement were captured, the workshop managers also discussed key themes with AAAFTS staff and breakout group facilitators. The draft proceedings were then sent out to all workshop participants for review, and comments were incorporated into the final proceedings, as appropriate. WORKSHOP OUTCOMES Several outcomes of the workshop are highlighted in this section including: general themes that emerged during presentations and general discussion; specific policy, program, and research recommendations relative to screening and assessment, license renewal and physician reporting, and interventions for at-risk drivers; recommended elements of model licensing systems; and areas of convergence and divergence with previous meetings (mentioned above) in the area of older adult driver licensing.
