Leverage the Surgery Resource You Know and Trust

TrueLearn is one of my favorite resources to prepare for the ABSITE. It is easy to use anytime anywhere. The platform is simple to navigate and adjust settings to fit your study needs. I especially appreciate the in-depth explanations of answers and the links to sources for further reading.

My program director was shocked that all I had used to study for ABSITE was TrueLearn. I did all of the questions at least once and studied from the explanations and each answer choice and scored at the 87th percentile. I am very pleased with Truelearn.

Used ABSITE & ABS SmartBanks to prep for my ABSITE & ABS Qualifying Exam. Love how they update the questions/answers/explanations based on feedback. Very useful tool with extensive explanations to prep for the test. Would recommend for surgery residents!

For what may be the biggest exam of my life, I trusted TrueLearn to help me solidify my surgical knowledge and assure my future for myself, my family, and my patients.

I used TruLearn for every ABSITE in residency and the qualifying exam. I truly believe it was the most accurate representation of what the actual tests would be like. The customer service is top notch as well – when the qualifying exam was delayed, TrueLearn extended my subscription free of charge.

How CME Credits Work

In support of improving patient care, this activity has been planned and implemented by the Postgraduate Institute for Medicine and TrueLearn. Postgraduate Institute for Medicine is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.

Physician Continuing Medical Education

The Postgraduate Institute for Medicine designates this enduring material for a maximum of 50 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

American Board of Surgery (ABS) Continuous Certification Program

Successful completion of this CME activity, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the learner to earn credit toward the CME and/or Self-Assessment requirements of the American Board of Surgery’s Continuous Certification program. It is the CME activity provider’s responsibility to submit learner completion information to ACCME for the purpose of granting ABS credit.
