The Review
Conference is designed based upon the list of topics potentially on the
PANCE / PANRE as provided by the NCCPA, and by review of the PANCE / PANRE
board exam matrix of question distribution. Obviously, the exact content of
the PANCE and PANRE exams is confidential and not known to the developers of
the Review Conference, and no suggestion is made that the Review Conference
or practice exam questions represent the level of complexity or distribution
of topics on the actual examinations.
This program has been reviewed and is approved for a
maximum of 35
hours of AAPA Category I CME credit by the Physician Assistant
Review Panel. Physician assistants should claim only those hours actually
spent participating in the CME activity.
This program was planned in accordance with AAPA’s CME Standards for Live
Programs and for Commercial Support of Live Programs.
