NEW!
ACPM is pleased to
announce an exciting change concerning
the 2009 exam. The College launched
a fully electronic In-Service Examination
via the
the Internet through a
website-based testing service.
Program Details:
The ACPM In-service Examination is
administered annually, in August, as a way
to enable residents and their directors to
determine if there are specific areas
where more study and experience are
needed. It is a voluntary exam that allows
residents to compare themselves with
others at the same level nationally. The
exam’s 110 questions are written in a "one
best response" format and residents are
given two hours to complete the exam.
Though not intended to be an examination
preparation tool, the In-service Exam can
be a gauge of how well residents are being
trained and prepared for the content of
the Board examination. It is designed for
residents in all specialty areas of
Preventive Medicine. The material covered
in the exam relates to the core (morning)
portion of the American Board of
Preventive Medicine (ABPM) certification
exam.
In
August 2009, 357 residents from sixty-two
programs participated in the exam.
