Mentoring

During the application and examination process, ABN will assist applicants in locating and establishing contact with an examined diplomate who can serve as a mentor. This person can review materials and offer suggestions regarding preparation and assist in developing effective strategies for remediating any weaknesses which are identified. The ABN office can work with the applicant and the mentor in providing reading lists and other relevant support materials.

ABN candidate preparation workshops are offered by members of the Examination Committee.
