Resource in Pathology

- For nearly 15 years, Challenger has been the leading provider
of electronic education for physicians. With this new product
Challenger is setting a higher standard for postgraduate
education in pathology.
Damjanov and Linder's Pathology: A Color Atlas is based
on the 10th Edition of Anderson's Pathology -- one of the
classics of American pathology -- which is generally recognized
as the best atlas of anatomic pathology for practicing
pathologists. Furthermore, it has been hailed as a must have
for all pathologists in training and the most useful atlas
for preparing for the boards examination. Now, Challenger has
combined our battle-tested, Q-and-A-based training methodology
with the power of this leading medical text to create Challenger/Damjanov
Linder® -- the gold standard course for review, reference,
and competency testing in pathology.

Practice, Review, Assess, and Score!
The Challenger review process is elegantly designed to promote
the highest level of retention possible. Questions are written
by clinical experts to emulate clinical examination standards
and to enhance knowledge of current best practices. Questions
are largely single answer, formatted to emulate boards
examination practices. Whether you are seeking to acquire
continuing medical education credits, preparing for an
examination, or re-affirming your knowledge, our review and
testing structure will help.
Our three step - Practice, Review, Assess - progression
incorporates a proven educational regime called programmed
learning. At the start of each topic chapter, three tabs
are displayed. Each tab's content is formatted for a specific
function and usage. You can toggle from tab to tab as you
wish, allowing for a more personalized flow of study.
The "Practice"
tab - The test run. Answer each question in a section and
receive pop up feedback and remediation. Limited tries keep
the session honest. Correct and incorrect indicators appear
next to your selected answers. All answers are revealed when
all tries are exhausted.
The "Review"
tab - The study guide. The Review section presents the
questions in the order seen in the Practice section, but with
all answers and remediation
displayed. Once your review is finished, you may either
re-enter the Practice section or proceed to the Assessment.
The "Assessment"
- The scored test. One or more assessments will be available
for each topic. Questions seen in the Practice view will
display in random order. At the end of each assessment, your
responses are scored and a detailed breakdown displayed.
The scoring
report indicates correct answers and incorrect answers
given for each question. These scores, if the required score
is met, can be sent to Challenger Corporation for fast
CME certificate fulfillment.
Our review method is so effective we even offer a Boards-Pass
guarantee! That's comprehensive content and study with NO
RISK!

Study At Your Own Pace
Keep time requirements under your control. Save
features capture your scores from wherever you are in the
course. Work in one topic in the morning, then jump to
something completely different in the afternoon. You're not
locked into any enforced content order, remote schedule, or
lecture circuit with Challenger products, so your valuable
review time is used at your discretion.

Don't have time to drive or fly to that
CME or boards review seminar? Have it come to you. When you
purchase any Challenger program, you will receive a CD-ROM and
instructional help guide. You will also be automatically set

Online Learning Portal, so you can access your coursework
material via the web from any computer with an Internet
