The Certificate of Added Qualifications in Emergency Medicine, or PA CAQ EM, is a specialty credential that physician assistants can earn to demonstrate they have experience, skills and knowledge in emergency medicine.

Med-Challenger's PA CAQ -EM course provides a comprehensive selection of Q&A that were strategically hand-picked from our content database by our clinical chief editors. Our team of clinical contributors edited and enhanced each question based on the emergency medicine CAQ exam content guidelines. The course also includes several newly written Q&A throughout.

The questions in the course now have an expanded remediation section that not only explains the reasoning behind correct and incorrect answer options, but also adds an “educational objective” and “key point” to the remediation. The addition of these features explains the purpose of the question to the learner, and also provides the key "take away" teaching point that the learner should absorb by studying the question.

Featuring NCCPA exam blueprint & PA CAQ: EM Model-based content, with Q&A designed to address key points in multiple ways. You are guaranteed to get the MOST Q&A, intelligent, time-saving adaptive learning features, as well as in-depth, detailed prescriptive remediation to help you better wrap your head around the breadth of all content covered in the exam. What's more, we keep all materials up-to-date and fresh at all times so whenever you need review, you'll be using the very best materials. No other review gives you more - or provides as much ongoing career value.

“Most of us started preparing for certification exams by passively reading a review book. You buy the book, you read it, you hope for the best. Med-Challenger provides a completely different and more compelling experience. Rather than starting with a basic outline, Med-Challenger starts with questions. But these questions aren’t the kind you see in review books. Med-Challenger questions are more comprehensive and engaging. Med-Challenger materials demand active thinking, expose learner weakness, identify knowledge gaps (especially in the area of treatments) and give feedback on areas that need improvement. The type of experience provided by Med-Challenger indicates the future of exam preparation.”
