Addiction Medicine Continuing Certification Program (CCP)
The ABPM’s CCP was developed in compliance with the new Standards for Continuing Certification mandated by the American Board of Medical Specialties and in response to feedback from ABPM Diplomates, who wanted a simpler but more meaningful program, and who overwhelmingly preferred an innovative alternative to the traditional high-stakes, point-in-time Maintenance of Certification (MOC) exam.
ABPM will extend the certification of ABPM Diplomates who are currently certified and are participating in the CCP. Learn how your certificate is affected and find your specific requirements for calendar years 2023 and 2024 here.
