Self Assessment

The self-assessment portion of the LLSA consists of a yearly 40-question test based on the lifelong learning articles. These questions are accessed from your home computer, at your leisure. You will have three chances to pass each yearly self-assessment exam. The assessment of cognitive expertise is to be tested by the ConCert exam. This exam will take place every ten years, following your original board certification date. In essence this takes the place of the current recertification written boards. However, the ConCert will incorporate both traditional EM core knowledge topics and questions from the Lifelong Learning and Self Assessment yearly tests. Unlike the LLSA yearly tests, you will not be able to take the ConCert at home, rather you will have to sign up for a half-day at a local computer testing center.
