About the Basic Review Course

The AOCOPM CME Conferences offer didactics designed to provide the most up-to-date information for doctors who practice in occupational & environmental medicine, public health & general preventive medicine, and aerospace medicine. In addition, the College sponsors a Basic Course in occupational & environmental medicine designed to provide a basic understanding and expertise in the areas of occupational & environmental medicine while preparing participants to take a written examination qualifying for an AOA-approved, Certificate of Added Qualification (CAQ).

The Course is presented in three (3) parts, which do not need to be taken in sequence. For the convenience of the faculty and participants, one part is provided at each of the two (2) conferences presented by the AOCOPM each year (usually in April and October). Each part is a full day didactic program, requires separate registration to the AOCOPM, and provides seven to nine (7-9) 1-A CME credits (Attendance at the AOCOPM conferences in the spring and fall will provide a total of approximately 50 AOA Category 1 CME credits each year).

For more information on the Basic Course or College membership, please contact our Executive Director, Jeffrey Le Boeuf MHA, MBA, CAE, at 800.558.8686 or email: [email protected] or visit www.aocopm.org for further information regarding future conferences.

A review primer of the entire basic course is also available for immediate download for $45. Basic Course Review Primer
