Statement of Need

Anchoring on the ABIM Certification Examination Blueprint, the overall goal of this online course is to review and update knowledge and competency for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of endocrine diseases for physicians preparing for the initial certification exam or a maintenance of certification assessment.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this virtual course, learners should be able to:

  • Demonstrate enhanced medical knowledge and clinical skills across all major areas of endocrinology;
  • Apply knowledge and skills in diagnosing, managing, and treating a wide spectrum of endocrine disorders;
  • Successfully complete the board examination for certification or re-certification in the subspeciality of endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism.

Target Audience

This course is intended for endocrine fellows planning for initial certification as well as practicing endocrinologists preparing for a Maintenance of Certification assessment, or physicians seeking an in-depth review of endocrinology. The secondary target audience includes advanced practice nurses and physician assistants.

Continuing Medical Education (CME)

ACCME

The Endocrine Society is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

The Endocrine Society designates this other activity for a maximum of 21 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activities.

While offering CME credits noted above, this program is not intended to provide extensive training or certification in the field.

Maintenance of Certification (MOC)

Successful completion of this CME activity, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the participant to earn up to 21 MOC points in the American Board of Internal Medicine's (ABIM) MOC program. Participants will earn MOC points equivalent to the number of CME credits claimed for the activity. It is the CME activity provider's responsibility to submit participant completion information to ACCME for the purpose of granting ABIM MOC credit.
