AGA Institute Self-Assessment Modules
The AGA Institute’s online Self-Assessment Modules (GI SAM) are intended to give gastroenterologists and practitioners of other disciplines the opportunity to test their current knowledge of select GI topics. In addition, these modules will allow the participant to claim CME credits, earn points towards ABIM’s Maintenance of Certification (MOC) program and prepare for the secure exam required for recertification.

Each module consists of multiple-choice questions, critiques and links to additional learning opportunities. All didactic information within the modules went through a formal peer-review process to ensure its accuracy in relation to the most recent clinical and/or basic sciences.

The AGA Institute hopes that you find your participation in GI SAM to be a rewarding and beneficial experience. Please select a module below to begin.
