April 27, 2016 – ABCRS is pleased to announce we are participating in a pilot with the American Board of Medical Specialties MOC Assessment Initiative and CertLink™ Technology Platform.

What is CertLink? CertLink™ is the platform that will support ABCRS to pilot longitudinal assessment models with spaced repetition. It will offer formative feedback and explore how to identify knowledge gaps in order to help inform and direct physicians to the appropriate resources for continuous professional development.

• The Soft Launch, April 2-June 30, 2018, will be comprised of those who passed their Oral Exam on September 16, 2017, Members of the ABCRS Board, and Members of the MOC Committee of the Board.
• More information will be forthcoming for future cohorts, whom we expect to include within the year, based on the first Quarter Pilot.
