Editorial: Those Educational Objectives
R. J. H.
The material Covered in PEDIATRICS IN REVIEW is, for the most part, based upon Educational Objectives developed by two Task Forces and accepted by the Coordinating Committee on Continuing Education and Recertification. Both Task Forces are made up of practicing pediatricians (at least 50%) and academicians, and are appointed by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Board of Pediatrics. The organization and respective responsibilities of the Task Forces are shown in the diagram. The activities of The Academy (PREP) and The Board are based upon these objectives.
The Topics Task Force develops some 25 to 35 Educational Objectives dealing with the Topics selected for review each year.
