Explanation of Credit Allocation

You may submit one (1) or two (2) case reports for evaluation. These must be in the same ABVP format used by first-time applicants. Instructions for case reports must be adhered to and are listed in the Applicant Handbook. The Credentials Committee reviewers will carefully evaluate each report and make a recommendation to accept or reject. Case reports are anonymous. Reviewers will not know whether they are submissions from new applicants for initial certification or from Diplomates for recertification. Each report that successfully passes Credentials review will earn two hundred (200) credits.

Important: Please refer to the ABVP Applicant Handbook for Case Report guidelines and format.
