CHEST BOARD REVIEW 2023

Critical Care Medicine Board Review

At CHEST’s Critical Care Medicine Board Review course, we won’t simply tell you what you need to know for your exam. Chest medicine experts will show you how to solve case-based problems during live in-person sessions and give in-depth answers to your questions.

Through advance access to comprehensive recorded lectures and 3 days of engaging in-person review with the experts, you’ll increase your mastery of critical care medicine concepts to prepare for your certification exam, recertify, develop your expertise for the Longitudinal Knowledge Assessment (LKA), or expand your job knowledge.

Pre-course education

Before the live in-person course, you’ll receive access to approximately 30 hours of prerecorded lectures to review in advance. Watching these lectures before the live course is essential to getting the full benefit from the interactive sessions. By committing to the advance preparation, you’ll be fluent in course concepts and know your questions ahead of time. It’s important that you dedicate ample time to viewing all the lectures prior to the live event. Starting as soon as possible is strongly recommended.

Live in-person sessions (August 12-14)

During 3 days of interactive, in-person learning with global experts in critical care medicine, you’ll engage with case-based, interactive questions alongside peers and get in-depth explanations of key exam concepts. Complex topics on the ABIM exam blueprint will be broken down into bite-sized pieces so you can quickly master the material.

With your registration, you’ll receive recordings of on-site sessions for later access!
