SEMPA/Rosh
Postgraduate Assessment Program

 

What is the SEMPA/Rosh Review Assessment Program?

The SEMPA/Rosh Review Assessment Program is an online question bank available to EMPA postgraduate training programs. Content spans the entire scope of medical knowledge expected of an EMPA practicing in emergency medicine.

The program was developed as a collaboration between the SEMPA Postgraduate Education Committee and Rosh Review with the aim being to create a measurable means of identifying and documenting the value of EMPA postgraduate training. Rosh Review is a high quality, high yield adjunct to any program’s didactic curriculum and provides explanations, visual learning aids, reference sections, rapid review sections, predictive scoring, and performance analysis to EMPA postgraduate trainees.

What does the subscription include?

Programs and trainees receive access to over 1500 questions covering all major areas of emergency medicine training. Performance feedback is provided along with explanations and visual learning aids. Trainees can be assigned a set systems-based block of questions or may create their own blocks of questions for self-study.

For programs that utilize the Foundations of Emergency Medicine online curriculum, paired Foundations quizzes are also available to assign to trainees. Foundations I quizzes should be assigned in the first year of training in parallel with the systems-based curriculum that is being covered by the individual program. Programs with a length of training longer than 12 months may choose to utilize the Foundations II quizzes for their second year trainees.

Finally, a pre, mid and final training exam are available to assign to trainees during the course of their program. The SEMPA Postgraduate Education committee will assign access to these exams and will have the ability to analyze and send comparative data to participating programs so that they may compare their program’s performance to other EMPA postgraduate training programs in the country. To gain access to these exams and data sets, individual programs are responsible for submitting trainee information to SEMPA via this online form.

Programs have the option to add on access to a PD Dashboard feature that allows program leadership to follow trainee performance individually, follow trends to see how the program is performing as a whole and identify trainee knowledge deficits. The dashboard can also be used to assign specific quizzes or blocks of questions to trainees.
