Recommended Courses for Residents
Use CAP ’11 Courses and Events to Prepare for Your Future
The Residents Forum Executive Committee identified 19 CAP ’11 courses as effective learning tools to take as preparation for the pathology board exams. In addition, all residents should attend the Residents Forum, the Members’ Town Meeting, the Scientific Plenary, the Spotlight Event and Reception, and the Networking Reception to learn about current issues impacting pathologists and future trends of the specialty. These events provide wonderful opportunities to develop and strengthen your own personal network of pathologists.
