Editorial PREP Is For You!!!

NED W. SMULL MD1
1 Director, Department of Education, American Academy of Pediatrics

A half life for the first year's curriculum will have passed as you read this commentary. Since thoughtful communication is fundamental to education, re-enforcement for the purposes of PREP seems most appropriate at this time.

The American Academy of Pediatrics in active cooperation and coordination with the American Board of Pediatrics has embarked upon a historic landmark in continuing medical education. While this may sound like a global term to some, I can assure you that PREP has been developed with the pediatric practitioner in mind. PREP is, indeed, designed for you!!!

The purpose of this discussion is not to dwell on the recertification issus—understandably sensitive and I would emphasize voluntary—but to try to communicate a realistic sense of purpose of why we feel this educational process is important.
