Description

Designation: The Osler Institute designates this Live activity for a maximum of 30 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

This comprehensive Virtual review is designed to help you pass your Psychiatry Certifying and MOC Exams and update your clinical knowledge base. Emphasis is on evidence-based medicine and board-relevant standards of care, incorporating new concepts and treatments. This 3-day virtual course includes lectures that review the entire field of Psychiatry, embedded questions for discussion on each topic, and a dedicated session for discussion of clinical vignettes.   As a result, it provides a good review for the Psychiatry Certifying and MOC exams or physicians in practice wanting a thorough update. All participants also receive a complimentary, searchable e-syllabus (containing PDFs of all PowerPoint presentations) and an online practice test for their improvement.

Lecture materials and discussions utilize DSM-V-TR vocabulary and definitions. Participants learn improved diagnostic and testing strategies, a better understanding of all major disease entities relevant to the practice of general psychiatry, and recognize specific areas of knowledge weakness for further self-study. You will also gain valuable insights and practical tips that you can immediately incorporate into your practice.

The webinar is delivered using Zoom Cloud Meetings, allowing audio and visual interaction between you and the faculty. You need a computer with a good internet connection to participate in the webinar. With this online webinar course, you get the best of both worlds – the comfort and safety of your home or office and the opportunity to learn from the Osler Faculty and your peers. In addition, all participants will receive complimentary streaming access to a course recording through Sept. 20, 2023.
