Self-Directed Educational Project (SDEP):
All registrants are expected to participate in the entire program and complete a self-directed educational project (SDEP) as outlined by the Maintenance of Certification program of the American Board of Radiology.

- Approach: a list of activities designated to address the need
- Evaluation of Achievement with an initial (prospective) statement and a final (summary) statement at the time of completion
- Impact on Practice/Outcome Statement: with an initial (prospective) statement and a final (summary) statement at the time of completion
Guidance in preparing a SDEP to become a better teacher will be provided during the workshop.
