Your Partner in Resident Success

Your trusted partner in family medicine resident education.

The AAFP has spent decades standing alongside residency programs like yours. The strength of our specialty starts with training the physicians who will carry it forward. For years, programs have trusted us to prepare their residents for Advanced Life Support in Obstetrics (ALSO®) and for the one-day ABFM exam.

We're here to support those goals and so much more.

A changing landscape, a real deadline.

Beginning in 2027, the ABFM requires programs to attest to resident competency across a defined list of procedures. Whether this formalizes what you're already doing or places new demands on your faculty, we're ready to help.

Family medicine residency programs use AAFP education to:

  • Fill faculty depth gaps.
  • Build their residents' baseline knowledge to free faculty time.
  • Support residents who need extra reinforcement or topic-specific training.
  • Help residents prepare for the one-day ABFM exam.

Meet the ABFM procedural competency requirements.
