About this Course

Practicing professionals learn in different ways. Some may read an article once and recall the content without effort; that is a rare talent, much like having perfect musical pitch or a knack for picking up languages. As a result, most learners use repetition and memorization to retain new information. Challenger has built a testing and training system based on a formal version of this approach called programmed learning. However, another segment of professionals learn in a different manner. Challenger/Rosen's®® Career Plus specifically addresses the learning requirements of this substantial professional audience.

Med-Challenger EM/Rosen's® Plus integrates our proven 100-year-old programmed learning methodology with a gold standard reference resource for emergency physicians, the 6th edition of Rosen's Emergency Medicine. It goes beyond being a source for test preparation and CME. It is much more than a collection of state-of-the-art images and case-based Q&A. Med-Challenger EM/Rosen's® Plus is the ideal resource to prepare you for your testing needs, enhance your knowledge of the standard of care and current practices, and ensure you will retain what you learn.

A Boards-Pass Guarantee

Our content is embedded in a proven methodology that guarantees you will pass these tests. The method of programmed learning has been tested and validated in formal studies of educational strategy as among the most effective techniques for insuring retention of learned material.

This gold standard review course is your one-stop career testing solution! Each special area of learning and competency—from allergic reactions and life-threatening signs to trauma and wound management—is continually peer-reviewed and adjusted with one primary goal in mind: preparing you to conquer the assessment exams in emergency medicine.

Board Simulations

Our board simulations offer hundreds of boards–style questions and answers covering key topics in emergency medicine. Divided into smaller modules, you can take these tests in between patients or in the comfort of your own home.
Know what to expect before you walk through the door on exam day.

CME Credit

With the rising costs of CME and boards review courses, as well as ever-increasing mandates from various accrediting bodies, Med-Challenger EM/Rosen's® Plus becomes more economical every day. Just think—you can earn up to 535 AMA Category 1 CME credits for free! Where can you find a better offer?

With Med-Challenger EM/Rosen's® Plus, you no longer have to fight long lines at airports, stay away from home in uncomfortable accommodations, and scramble to find ways to earn CME at the end of the year. In terms of time saved alone, how can you afford not to own and use this product?

Clinical Reference

Med-Challenger EM/Rosen's® Plus combines the new 6th edition of Rosen's Emergency Medicine with the leading electronic review course, our Med-Challenger EM. You can review, test your standard of cognitive knowledge, and explore content in greater depth -on your time schedule, all in one curriculum, and without leaving the comfort of your office or home.

This gold standard course delivers complete and accurate state-of-the-art clinical information in 208 chapters covering 348 of essential topics of emergency medicine. You can reduce your risk and remain current in your specialty with our cutting-edge new material covering 30 key topics including geriatrics, domestic violence, and end-of-life care as well as a variety of infectious diseases. In addition, we offer new content based on the American Heart Association's Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care.

Looking to further explore a peculiar presentation? Searching medication effects for a peculiar case? Med-Challenger EM/Rosen's® Plus also offers live links to PubMed, MEDLINE, and other outside resources allowing you to easily refresh your knowledge or research your cases. There is no other comparable peer-reviewed product providing both comprehensive review and the most up-to-date information on standards of care in emergency medicine.

Topical Pretest

Getting ready for an exam? Med-Challenger EM/Rosen's® Plus includes topical pretests to help narrow your focus by testing your baseline knowledge. Spend less time focusing on topics you are familiar with and more time in areas of weakness.

Maintenance of Certification

Med-Challenger EM offers expert analysis and Key Points in our Challenger Lifelong Learning and Self Assessment(LLSA 2009, 2008, 2007). The LLSA portion of our course offers up to 112 AMA Category 1 CME credits, as well as Key Points, article summaries, and Q & A for the ABEM-designated articles. There is no other comparable peer-reviewed product providing both comprehensive review and the most up-to-date information on standards of care in emergency medicine.

Long Product Life

Med-Challenger EM/Rosen's® Plus provides extended product life -- five (5) years from the time of purchase-- regarding online access, CME life, free CME processing, and live support. The "Plus" also provides automatic updates to your integrated textbook title (including new editions) and any and all updates online and on CD-ROM.
