Description
Testing what your practice does not
Clinical work is a narrow examiner. It rehearses the same conditions relentlessly and leaves the rest to erode, which is why an experienced clinician can be excellent within their case mix and quietly out of date just outside it. Nothing in an ordinary working year will surface that.
Over 7,000 questions spanning the whole specialty will, and reasonably efficiently.
Why it suits CPD rather than exam cramming
Because the explanations are complete, a question answered correctly still returns information — often that a habitual practice rests on evidence that has since moved. Clinicians report this most frequently in antithrombotic duration and heart failure sequencing, the two areas that have shifted fastest.
Documentation and revalidation
Self-assessment with recorded feedback satisfies the CPD requirement in most jurisdictions and is among the better-evidenced formats for retention. Requirements differ considerably between regulators, so members should confirm against their own before counting hours.
A workable pace
One chapter a month covers the collection over several years without displacing clinical time, and because access is permanent the material remains available as a reference long after a given CPD cycle closes.
Suits
Practising cardiologists and general physicians maintaining breadth, doctors preparing international examinations, and clinicians returning to practice after a career break.
