Board Exam Study Course
What is the Board Exam Study Course?

The course offers two days of live-stream sessions and additional on-demand sessions which are mapped to the addiction medicine exam blueprint of topics and feature an outstanding lineup of faculty. Following the live virtual event, all sessions will be available on-demand for the next three years in ASAM’s e-Learning Center.
In conjunction with the Board Exam Study Course, two supplemental virtual courses are being offered on Tuesday, July 14, and Wednesday, July 15. Separate registration required.
