ACFAS Educational Pathways
The ACFAS Educational Pathways are a tool to be used by residency directors, fellowship
directors and school faculty to aid with didactic learning during the COVID-19
crisis. It is not intended to replace a curriculum, however, it is to supplement student and resident education during this time of need.
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.
