Lifelong orthopaedic learning is at the core
of the Academy’s mission
That’s why AAOS is committed to helping every member grow, succeed and thrive in the orthopaedic surgery profession. AAOS provides its members with the knowledge, education, clinical tools, and professional support that allow you to meet the challenges of your chosen specialty interest and build mastery throughout your career.
We provide the online AAOS Learning Portfolio to help you manage Maintenance of Certification. It shows you how many CME credits you need and when you need them. You can check your CME earnings and add new CME activities to your transcript by logging into the Learning Portfolio.
Additional Education Resources
In addition to our resources for orthopaedic surgeons, the AAOS offers a wide selection of clinical and assessment tools to help meet the educational needs of all health professionals involved in musculoskeletal care -- from courses and webinars to print and digital publications, and videos.
OrthoInfo.org is the Academy's patient education website. Direct your patients here for hundreds of articles on diseases, conditions and treatments, as well as injury prevention information.
The AAOS also provides opportunities for orthopaedic specialty, regional and state societies and other orthopaedic education providers to engage in a joint providership of its educational activities.
