OBJECTIVE: This paper identifies key features associated with high-quality educational materials for end-of-life curriculum. METHODS: The End of Life Physician Education Resource Center (EPERC), located on the Internet at provides a clearinghouse for end-of-life materials. All materials posted on EPERC are peer reviewed by content and education experts for quality. An analysis of reviewers' ratings, from the EPERC rating form and their narrative comments, revealed common strengths and weaknesses of submitted materials. Examples of exemplar materials from the EPERC website are presented to highlight key strengths. DISCUSSION: Articulating the best qualities of submitted materials provides clear standards for those seeking to develop or adopt high quality end-of-life educational materials.
