Abstract
Program Description: This miniseminar addresses a common knowledge gap regarding the purpose and process of maintenance of certification (MOC) in our field. Expert panelists include representatives from the American Board of Otolaryngology and the American Academy of Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS) Education Council.

Finally, we will share AAO-HNS educational resources designed for lifelong learning and MOC preparation. Educational Objectives: (1) Recognize MOC as a lifelong learning and quality improvement program. (2) Understand the 10-year cycle and the specific requirements for each of the 4 components of MOC. (3) List AAO-HNS educational resources designed for lifelong learning, maintenance of certification, and recertification.
