146: ABA’s MOCA Minute with Dr. Deborah Culley

With a mission of advancing the highest standards of the practice of anesthesiology, the American Board of Anesthesiology (ABA) is committed to partnering with physicians to advance lifelong learning and exceptional patient care. They administer primary and subspecialty certification exams as well as the Maintenance of Certification in Anesthesiology Program (or MOCA 2.0), which has recently been redesigned and improved to include the microlearning initiative, MOCA Minute, a web based learning and assessment tool. Dr. Deborah Culley is an attending physician and vice chair of research at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston and an associate professor of anesthesiology at Harvard Medical School. She’s also secretary on the board of directors for the ABA and she understands the tremendous impact the MOCA Minute is having on individual physicians and the profession as a whole. In this episode of the Leading Learning podcast, Celisa talks with Deb about what the ABA is doing to better meet the needs of physicians through MOCA Minute and MOCA 2.0, why each of the programs was developed, and how everyone benefits.
