Prep Courses for ABO Scenario-based Oral Clinical Exam
The College of Diplomates Prep Course is designed to assist participants in preparing for the American Board of Orthodontics Scenario-based Clinical Examination to achieve board certification.
We apologize that in-person courses in 2020 were cancelled in response to COVID-19. College leaders are continuing to evaluate virtual presentation options pending curriculum changes needed as the ABO moves to a virtual Scenario-based Clinical Examination beginning November 2020.
