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-Challen ger 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.
