Question:
For the hours of practice; how would you enter them if you worked at two different hospitals during the 5 year periods?
Answered March 22, 2024
In the space for entering the "Facility/Company Name" -- you may type in both hospitals there. Or, you can enter Practice Hours twice, one for each facility.
Question:
Hello when entering a program development and program presentation, it is not allowing me to enter it as Professional Practice and Specialty is pre checked. Is there a reason for this? Thank you.
Answered March 21, 2024
They are pre-designated as written in the PGP Handbook. The new PGP process was simplified, so that each activity is predetermined for one or the other. For example, Practice Hours will always be Specialty, or, Committees will always be Professional Practice.
