Dear ABPS,

I have learned of your organization from my colleagues, many of whom have used your organization. I am interested in becoming certified in EM through ABPS. I note that you require candidates to be working full time in the year prior to the application. In my case, I have been working full time in EM since 1990. However in 2008 I went to half time for family reasons. I suspect this scenario may be common, especially amongst women EPs of childbearing age. Is there a way I can still qualify to apply?

Thanks,

Anthony White, MD
