Description
The Oakstone Institute’s Psychiatry Board Review Course is an in-depth, case-based review, and is designed to provide psychiatrists and psychiatrists-in-training with current, relevant, and condensed information needed to pass certification (written and oral exams), recertification, and maintenance of certification exams. It is also valuable if you are simply looking for a great way to keep up with key developments in psychiatry. A concise format means it will focus only on what is necessary to pass the exam and stay current. More than 30 leading edge presentations are delivered by faculty selected for their outstanding teaching methods and expertise in target ‘must-know’ areas.
