While board certification has always been a hot topic for podiatry, over the last several months concerns about this subject have reached a boiling point. Earlier this year APMA announced it would host the Summit on Board Certification immediately following the 2023 House of Delegates on Monday, March 20. The summit was open to all interested parties and a listening-only option was made available to those who could not attend in person. More than 120 individuals registered to attend the summit and another 75-plus chose the listening-only option. A recording of the summit (audio only) is available below.
