Following the success of Longitudinal Assessment for Continuing Certification in PM&R, and the Longitudinal Assessment for Brain Injury Medicine (LA-BIM), the ABPMR now offers Longitudinal Assessment for Pediatric Rehabilitation Medicine (LA-PRM). LA-PRM is a learning platform designed to assist diplomates in keeping up to date with their PRM knowledge with relevant resources, provide immediate feedback, and identify gaps for learning and improvement over time.
Previously, PRM diplomates have recertified through the PRM Examination offered every 10 years; after passing the examination, diplomates received a 10-year certificate. LA-PRM replaces the 10-year exam and offers quarterly questions that diplomates can complete on their own schedule, with a summative assessment over a five-year cycle.
