ACMPE - The American College of Medical Practice Executives

Established in 1956, the American College of Medical Practice Executives (ACMPE) is the standard-setting and certification body of the Medical Group Management Association.

 Tips from one of your fellow members
 
by Mary Alice Stanford, CMPE; Administrator of Renal Associates of Baton Rouge, LLC
 
It was often difficult to devote the time, and force myself to be disciplined in preparing to take the ACMPE Board Certification Exam. However, passing the test on the first attempt made every moment worth it. Because I worked so hard to earn the certification, I am proud to place "CMPE" behind my signature.
 
I suggest you:
 
(1) Take the practice test to help identify sections of the Body of Knowledge where you might need additional study.
 
(2) Read the Body of Knowledge Books, focus on areas where you need to study, and read selected chapters in the books for the other areas.
 
(3) Write 2-3 short essays on sample questions, and have your mentor read them and give you feedback.
