NEJM Knowledge+ is a first-of-its-kind smart technology designed to meet the training and development needs of clinicians. The platform uses research-proven methods to accelerate proficiency, continuously sharpen skills, and promote lifelong learning.

The award-winning NEJM Knowledge+ is recognized for its ability to adapt to clinicians’ learning goals, pace, and knowledge gaps, and to deliver the information each clinician needs. For time-starved doctors with demanding jobs, the adaptive approach of NEJM Knowledge+ has been shown to be more effective and efficient compared to traditional board certification preparation.

A recent study showed that NEJM Knowledge+ users in the U.S. (during 2014-2016) passed the ABIM-CE on their first attempt at a significantly higher rate than the national average (95% vs. 89%). NEJM Knowledge+ has been recognized for its effectiveness in preparing clinicians for board exams, earning CME and MOC, and engaging in lifelong learning.

NEJM Group (a division of The Massachusetts Medical Society, publisher of the New England Journal of Medicine) and Area9 partnered in 2013 to launch NEJM Knowledge+, which to date has had more than 23,000 users.
