26th Annual Recertification Review Course and Spring Conference April 25 – 28, 2015 Doubletree Hotel Seattle Airport | Seatac, Washington Physician Assistants photo credit: Howard Frisk | VisitSeattle.org The Washington State Academy of CONFERENCE INFORMATION T he Washington State Academy of Physician Assistants is proud to host this Recertification Review Course and Spring Conference. We understand PA’s preparing to take the NCCPA Recertification Examination need to review major medical subject areas. All Physician Assistants need CME to remain certified and to help them to continue to provide excellent patient care. Our goal is to help meet both of these needs and to make your learning experience a pleasant one. Accreditation (start earning Self Assessment hours at our conference) 31.75 hours of Category I CME will be applied for through the AAPA. Approximately 10 of these hours can be applied toward the Self Assessment credits needed for the new ten year certification maintenance process. Concurrent Lectures Concurrent lectures will be offered with an expanded list of topics for attendees. These sessions are meant to provide advanced and more specific topics for attendees, especially for those returning from past Recertification Review Courses. Audio CD’s and DVD’s are available for sale for any lecture that you miss. Electronic Syllabus WAPA will be providing an e-syllabus in place of a paper syllabus. The link will be sent to your email address 1 week prior to the start of the conference. It will have all of the speaker presentations (powerpoint slides, outline, articles). At registration check in, each attendee will receive a packet of information (schedule, raffle rules and events that you signed up for). The e-syllabus can be downloaded to your laptop or tablet so you can follow along during the presentations. The e-syllabus will be available online for 3 months after the conference. Watch for an email from WAPA with instructions on how to view the e-syllabus online. There will be complimentary WiFi in the lecture halls. Concurrent Workshops Like concurrent lectures, the concurrent workshops are intended to provide conference attendees with medical education alternatives. The workshops will be conducted in smaller rooms, with limited enrollment to maximize the hands-on nature of the sessions. Each workshop requires an additional fee from each attendee. Practice Exam Workshop — FREE WAPA is offering a Test Taking Workshop and Self Assessment Examination for PA’s preparing for PANCE and PANRE. The workshop is scheduled for Sunday morning from 7:00am – 9:00am. Bonnie Dadig, Ed.D, PA-C has been assisting students and graduates prepare to take their certifying and recertifying examination for over twenty years. Dr. Dadig has prepared a self- assessment examination containing 80 items based on the NCCPA’s test grid. The self- assessment examination will immediately follow the one hour test taking seminar. This will give you an opportunity to see what kinds of questions to expect on your upcoming exam. The practice examination is designed to allow you to assess your relative strengths and weaknesses and correct answers are provided for immediate feedback. Having this experience in a non-threatening environment early in the conference will assist you in your preparation for your exam. Parking WAPA has decided to cover the costs of hotel parking. Daily and overnight parking will be complimentary to all conference attendees.
