NEEDS STATEMENT

There is a critical need for targeted educational support for physicians pursuing certification from the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (ABPMR). These candidates experience challenges in mastering topics within the ABPMR examination syllabus, applying theoretical knowledge in practical scenarios, and navigating the specific requirements of the computer-based and oral examination formats. Additionally, there is a need to ensure candidates stay current with the latest advancements in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. Addressing this urgency requires an educational strategy that enhances knowledge, facilitates practical application, provides format-specific preparation, and ensures continuous awareness of the latest developments. This approach is essential to adequately prepare physicians for successful performance in both the computer-based and oral components of the ABPMR certification examination.
