New Online Portal Makes Life Easier for Program Directors, Coordinators

Wednesday, February 15, 2017

Early in 2016, the ABP launched its new Program Director’s Portal. The first phase of the project, now live, allows program directors and coordinators to manage their program profiles online. Features of the portal gives users the ability to change the program’s contact information, add or change coordinators, provide a coordinator access to the portal and view trainee’s examination results.

Additionally, program directors and coordinators can view, download and export examination results beginning with the fall 2015 examinations and 2016 Subspecialty In-Training Examination (SITE) results.

“The ABP Program Portal is a wonderful tool for residency and fellowship programs,” says Ann Burke, MD, Professor of Pediatrics and Director of the Pediatric Residency Program at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio.  “Being able to manage our information online makes the process easier. I love that the exam results are posted and organized on the site. I am looking forward to having the ability to track my learners on the site in the future.”

Future phases of the project include components for tracking trainees, expanded training data accessible on the portfolio and components that enhance the process for credentialing applicants for certifying examinations.
