Easy Steps to a Successful Self-Assessment Module

Accessing a SAM

To launch the SAM, click on the icon of the globe in the launch course column.
You must view each required SAM course component to receive credit, and you must view them in the order listed. For example, you cannot view the test until you have viewed the learning component(s) first. Required components are indicated.
Many of the learning components of SAMs are pdf files of previously published materials. To view these, you need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader on your computer. Also, pop-up blockers must be turned off.
To view each component of the SAM, click on that component's title. After viewing each component of the SAM, click on the Main Menu button in the lower left corner. Now you are ready to take the test.

Taking a SAM Test

All questions must be answered to obtain "completed" status.
After completing the test, click the "submit" button at the bottom of the screen.
Questions answered incorrectly will display a "question remediation" box. Click this box to view the article in a PDF format. There are navigation links in this PDF that take you to the review section for the questions that you missed.
Again, please note that all questions must be answered to obtain "completed" status. Only one attempt at the testing component of the SAM is allowed.

Claiming a Certificate

After completing the SAM, click on the "Claim Credit(s)" link. A certificate will display and your credits will automatically transfer to the RSNA CME Credit Repository.
After printing your certificate, click "Main menu" on the lower left. Close the next window that appears to return to your Course Book.

Troubleshooting Pop-up blockers must be turned off.

To view SAMs you are currently enrolled in or to view your SAM certificates, you must log in. Reminder, use your user ID and password to log in. After logging in, click "My Profile" and then "Current InteractED Enrollments" which will take you to your current courses. You may also access the section where your completed courses are listed if you wish to view/reprint your certificate(s).
