PEMQBook Board Review Course 2021

General Information:

- The course will be held live, online, virtually, so that you will be able to interact and ask questions.

- The typical 3 day course will be divided into 3 separate 1 day sessions:

- December 11, 2020

- January 22, 2021

- February 26, 2021

- And one half-day session

- March 19, 2021

-Lectures start at 9:00 am (Central Standard Time) and should end by 5:00 pm for each session

-Each session covers ~1/3 of the course content, making the overall content more manageable, as it is spread out over 3 1/2 sessions. Each session is distinct and different.

- Lectures/Content for December: See webpage for schedule and updates.

- The course lectures will be based on commonly challenging areas as well as the participants' performance/need

- All participants will be asked to complete Pack 2 of MED-Challenger Peds EM (PEMQBook 2017) by specified dates relevant to the course content for the specific session.

- In other words, 1/3 of the content should be completed before each specific session. The results will be used to help tailor the lectures specific to the attendees' needs.

- See schedule for course content. Additional chapter guidance will be issued forthcoming.

- Pack 2 is the online version of PEMQBook 2017, and is the most recently released PEMQBook.

- Pack 1 (PEMQBook 2013 Updated) is available for purchase through Med-Challenger, but is not a requirement for the Board Review Course.

- Lectures will be given by previous editors and authors, as well as Faculty from the Division of Pediatric Emergency Medicine from University of Texas Southwestern Medical School, who are designated to be authors and editors for PEMQBook 2022.

- Pass or Don't Pay: your Med-Challenger and PEMQBook Board Review Course fees will be refunded if you don't pass the Certification Examination in 2021.

How did you use the feedback from the last course?

- We are increasing the content of didactic lectures, while using the question and answer format to frame the course.

- 20 Points for ABP MOC Part 2 are available through Med-Challenger.

I already own the print version of PEMQBook 2017. Do I have to purchase the online Challenger version?

- Yes. The course is based on this, and Med-Challenger sends us the data on your performance.

- Using Med-Challenger's online test format will help you prepare for the board examination.

Can I share the subscription for Challenger?

- No. Each participant will be required to register for themselves independently.

Do I need to buy Pack 1 or PEMQBook 2013 Updated?

- No. We made this optional, since you may already own either of these.

- We are basing our course on your performance of Pack 2.

Can I buy Pack 2 on Challenger now?

- Yes, but choose the option for the course, rather than Pack 2 in isolation.
