American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) optional pre-course session — Sunday September 11, 2016: Maintenance of Certification Part 2 Self-Assessment

• 2016 Pediatric Infectious Diseases Self-Assessment (10 MOC Part 2 points)
• 2016 Nephrology Self-Assessment (10 MOC Part 2 points)

The optional pre-course ABP Maintenance of Certification Part 2 Self-Assessment session is chaired by expert faculty who analyze, reference articles and module questions to explain why they are important for the field and provide key points and clinical pearls. Session attendees actively participate through verbal discussion and understanding of current evidence; a common consensus is achieved in answering these questions. The collective information gathered in these interactive sessions enhances individual knowledge and improves retention of current medical information.

Attendees are required to bring their laptops to the session in order to log in to their personal portfolio on the ABP website. Participant may then go to the activity under the MOC section. ABP recommends a laptop computer be used to take this self-assessment. Mobile device technology, including iPads, may experience difficulty.

These sessions can help participants understand and learn ABP-approved self-assessment modules. Mayo Clinic is an accredited sponsor and has approved this group learning session for CME credit. After the completion of this interactive module, credit for MOC Part 2 will be entered directly into your ABP portfolio.
