Instructions for Preparing and Submitting your MOC Response Form
To earn up to 7 MOC Part II points, the ABP asks learners to reflect on the content during the Live Online Community Conference, write down what they have learned, and indicate what practices they will maintain or change. Please keep the Thursday & Friday surveys open throughout the Live Online Community Conference and use it as a prompt for thoughtful reflection.
