The newest educational offering from ACG, the ACG
Education Universe is an online, self-directed CME program that
provides a way for all gastroenterologists to access outstanding tools
in preparing for the GI boards, recertification, or obtaining necessary
CME credits outside of the ACG meetings.
Users can choose what they want to learn about, the format of the information,
and how much time they want to devote to learning at any given point.
A wide variety of education materials will allow the user to define
the specific parameters for study to meet his or her needs and interest.
The system will also track how much CME users earn and can print certificates
or a statement of CME credits completed. ACG members can obtain CME credit
at reduced rates.

ACG’s companion resource to the Postgraduate Course is now available
online. This popular resource contains more than 300 questions. Questions
are in single best answer or true/false format and many include photographs
and illustrations along with detailed answers and annotated references.
This resource provides a valuable review for graduating fellows taking
their GI Boards as well as established practitioners looking for a broad
clinical update. To enter the Online Self-Assessment Test, click

ACG is pleased to announce that the American Board of Internal Medicine
has approved ACG’s Self-Assessment Program (SAP) for credit in
the ABIM Maintenance of Certification (MOC) program. ABIM diplomates
enrolled in the MOC program who successfully complete the program will
be awarded 20 self-evaluation of medical knowledge points by ABIM. ACG’s
web-based module, a comprehensive educational program dedicated to providing
clinical updates in specific topic areas in Gastroenterology, is comprised
of 60 case-based, multiple-choice questions. Upon completion, users
are able to access detailed explanations and linked references to other
educational resources, and earn up to 4 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. For
