National Journal Club Becomes Enduring Self-Assessment Activity

45+ New Articles Added

Thanks to positive feedback from physicians like you, ABFM has upgraded the National Journal Club (NJC) pilot to an enduring self-assessment activity! NJC allows you to download and read the latest evidence-based articles to meet your certification requirements, or simply for your ongoing learning. The NJC articles are selected from over 120 journals on the basis of relevance to family medicine, potential to change practice and quality of evidence by a committee of family physicians from diverse clinical backgrounds with expertise in evidence-based medicine (read more in JABFM).

More than 45 new articles are provided twice a year for you to choose from, allowing you to make the activity fit your own interests and needs. After you read each article, you will answer four brief questions to earn points toward your certification requirements in Self-Assessment and Lifelong Learning, as well as receive CME credit.  Access ABFM’s National Journal Club here. If you need assistance logging in or have questions related to this activity, contact our ABFM Support Center at 877-223-7437 or [email protected].   To learn more about the development of NJC and the experience of the physicians involved, read our Diplomate Perspectives article.
