KSA Boot Camp Hosted with Alabama AFP PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

MAFP joined forces with Alabama Academy of Family Physicians and hosted a Knowledge Self-Assessment (KSA) Study Group Boot Camp as a virtual-only event on Saturday, Dec. 12, 2020. The event was produced and broadcast to attendees from the MAFP headquarters. Although the pandemic kept the more than 50 physician learners from attending live, registrants gave the virtual event good evaluations. Three back-to-back KSA sessions were held so attendees could earn up to 24 hours of CME in one day. Three topics were chosen including Depression, Hypertension and Palliative Care. Instructors included MAFP past presidents Dr. Jennifer Gholson, Summit; Dr. John Mitchell, Pontotoc; and Dr. Katie Patterson, Indianola. They and MAFP President Dr. James Griffin of Hattiesburg were at the MAFP office participating in the live broadcast. Registrants tuned in via an online platform to see the presenters and discuss the KSA topics. They asked questions and communicated with each other via chat. Attendees participated in polling on each question and saw the polling results instantly on their screen. Behind the scenes of the boot camp was the staff of Gwendolyn Events, who hosted it on an online platform, and MAFP staff.
