Abstract
An increasing number of nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician assistants (PAs) are pursuing careers in rheumatology. To serve their educational interests, the Association of Rheumatology Professionals, the American College of Rheumatology and the American Association of Physician Assistants created “The Training Rheum”, a 3-day continuing professional development (CPD) course. This program includes instruction in physical exam skills of the hand, wrist, and elbow, reinforced through low-stakes, formative assessment.
