  TRAINING & CERTIFICATION ISSUES

 

With interests ranging from pediatric nephrology trainees to issues related to maintenance of certification for established pediatric nephrologists, the Training and Certification committee’s work encompasses a broad range of issues in the discipline.  The committee represents the ASPN membership and future ASPN members, but more importantly, attends to the need for well trained pediatric nephrologists to provide quality care to children in North America and to help set the pace in training and care around the world.  Membership in the Training and Certification committee is open to all ASPN members.  Membership to the two working subcommittees/subgroups (the Program Directors subcommittee and the PFeNa – Fellows group) is open to all members with those roles in their respective institutions.

β€œHot” topics currently include: the mechanisms for a Pediatric Nephrology fellowship match, issues related to encouraging more residents to choose a career in pediatric nephrology, best methods to prepare pediatric nephrologists for upcoming maintenance of certification (MOC) tests and other MOC requirements (eg., American Board of Pediatrics Part IV Quality Improvement projects) and efforts to allow Pediatric Nephrology Fellowship Program Directors to share best educational methods.  For more information about the work of the Training and Certification Committee, please go to our Members Only section.
