Annual Review Course (2025)
For your convenience and to meet your educational needs, the AUA Annual Review Course offers your choice of course format. The Live Course Only option includes in-person attendance in Houston, TX with live presentations, audience interaction, Q&A, practice questions, and more to come! The Webcast Only option includes on-demand access to presentations after the meeting, available June 11 . This course does not offer a live stream option.
For the ABU Qualifying (Part 1) Examination, residents need to possess basic working urologic knowledge and an understanding of how to utilize current American Urological Association practice guidelines. There exists variability in how prepared residents are for the Exam, indicating a need for further education. To fulfill this need, the AUA developed this course to disseminate current urologic knowledge and best practices to successfully prepare residents for the ABU examination. This course is also of interest to practicing urologists as well as others, including allied health professionals, looking for a thorough review of basic urologic topics.
Attendees can choose between three options:
- Live Course Only
