Overview
The Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine has developed an interactive CDROM that utilizes state-of-the-art computer visualization technology to meet the needs of physicians to conveniently and inexpensively obtain CME credit. MSUCOM will award 27 hours of Category 1-B CME credit when an accompanying CME quiz is completed with a passing grade of 70%. If you have a computer, you can complete the requirements for obtaining Category 1-B credits in the convenience of your home or business.
Extensive use of multimedia technologies, such as interactive simulations, animation, video, audio, and color graphics, helps you to review, master, and retain techniques used for diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal dysfunction. This ensures that our products will provide you with an experience that will not only hold your attention, but will actually make learning fun. Our objectives go beyond just providing you with a product that will enable you to obtain CME credits. We also want to expand your understanding of, and ability to use, OMM in your practice.
"Quiz" sections are interspersed throughout the instructional modules so that the user can gauge their level of understanding as they move through the material. The physician uses the quiz sections as practice exercises and, when ready, moves on to the graded quiz for CME credits. If you've been looking for a practical way to obtain CME credits in the discipline of manual therapy, we invite you to try our multi-disciplinary exercise in computer-based training.
