The ACFAS Educational Pathways are a tool to be used by residency directors, fellowship directors and school faculty to supplement student and resident education.
The learning pathways are divided into basic, intermediate and advanced categories.
Pathways have been organized into specific topics that have a variety of educational materials from ACFAS OnDemand course content. It also includes journal articles with links primarily from The Journal of Foot & Ankle Surgery.
There is a lock on the videos per CPME guidelines for CME, as users are required to view the series in its entirety to earn CME. For those students and residents accessing OnDemand videos for a specific topic, you may need to fast forward through earlier content to access it.
