The New Certification Maintenance Program
The Board spoke about the changes to its Certification Maintenance program at the 2019 AAOMS Annual Meeting in Boston, MA. If you didn't have a chance to see the presentation, we encourage you to review the slides to stay knowledgable about how these changes are affecting your certification.
ABOMS will be hosting a webinar on November 13, 2019 at 6pm CST to present about this topic once more before the changes go live in January 2020. Register through AAOMS to attend the course.
