Addiction Medicine Board Review and Professional Self-Study Update

The new ACAAM Learning Portal launches summer 2026 — a dynamic new destination for addiction medicine education, board preparation, and professional development. As we prepare for this exciting transition, addiction medicine board review self-study products are temporarily unavailable for purchase.

Be the first to hear about launch updates, product availability, and early access opportunities when self-study resources return. 

About ACAAM's Board Review and Professional Self-Study

ACAAM’s board review and professional self‑study resources support clinicians preparing for Addiction Medicine board certification, as well as those seeking to deepen their knowledge through independent, self‑paced learning. Content is developed by leaders in academic addiction medicine and grounded in evidence‑based practice.

Two Ways Clinicians Use ACAAM Self‑Study Resources

ACAAM’s self‑study offerings support two primary use cases:

  • Board‑focused preparation, for clinicians actively planning to sit for the Addiction Medicine board examination
  • Professional learning and clinical knowledge building, for clinicians seeking to strengthen or refresh their addiction medicine expertise outside of an exam timeline

The offerings below are used across both contexts, with some resources designed specifically for board preparation and others supporting broader professional development.

Coming to the ACAAM Learning Portal

The following Addiction Medicine board review and professional self‑study offerings will be available through the ACAAM Learning Portal. Additional details will be shared once the portal launches.

Addiction Medicine Learning & Assessment Bank

Developed for delivery through the ACAAM Learning Portal, the Learning & Assessment Bank features 260 evidence‑based questions mapped to the American Board of Preventive Medicine (ABPM) Addiction Medicine core content areas. Learners may use the Bank in both learning mode and exam mode, depending on their study goals.

The Learning & Assessment Bank allows learners to:

  • Focus on specific ABPM core content areas
  • Select substances or addiction categories
  • Adjust study and assessment experiences based on confidence level

Robust analytics help learners identify strengths and gaps and track progress over time. All questions include detailed explanations and references to support deeper understanding.

Expert‑Developed, Evidence‑Based Content
Content is created by ACAAM addiction medicine faculty, aligned with ABPM standards, fully referenced, and developed without industry support or influence.

ACAAM Core: Board Prep

A focused bundle for Addiction Medicine board preparation

Coming with the ACAAM Learning Portal, ACAAM Core: Board Prep is a bundled offering for clinicians planning to sit for the Addiction Medicine board examination. 

ACAAM Core combines:
  • Full access to the Addiction Medicine Learning & Assessment Bank
  • A targeted set of board review didactic recordings focused on high‑yield substance‑based topics
This bundle is designed for non‑members who want exam‑focused study tools without purchasing ACAAM’s full didactic curriculum.
Included Board Review Didactics
  • Alcohol: Board Review
  • Sedatives‑Hypnotics: Board Review
  • Cannabis Use Disorder, Cannabis‑Related Disorders, and Board Review
  • Opioid Use Disorder: Board Review
  • Cocaine, Methamphetamine, and Other Stimulants: Board Review
ACAAM Core is intended for non‑members. ACAAM members already have access to didactic content as part of membership.

Addiction Medicine Practice Exam

A board‑style exam simulation 

Coming with the ACAAM Learning Portal, the Addiction Medicine Practice Exam is a fixed, exam‑mode assessment designed to simulate formal board testing conditions.

The Practice Exam is configured by ACAAM using a subset of questions from the Addiction Medicine Learning & Assessment Bank and is delivered as a time‑limited, exam‑mode–only experience. Learners cannot customize content areas or study settings.

This product is intended for clinicians who want a one‑time exam simulation rather than an ongoing learning and assessment tool.

Didactic Session Recordings

ACAAM’s Addiction Medicine Didactic Session Recordings support professional learning and clinical knowledge development across addiction medicine practice settings.

Drawn from ACAAM’s national didactic curriculum, these on‑demand recordings feature expert‑led sessions presented by faculty from accredited addiction medicine fellowship programs. Content spans foundational and advanced topics and is designed for clinicians seeking to strengthen, refresh, or expand their addiction medicine knowledge outside of a formal exam timeline.

Through the ACAAM Learning Portal, didactic recordings will be organized to support flexible, self‑paced learning and ongoing professional development.
