ABA recommends combining the fellowship review coincide with the burn center reverification review. This will be accomplished by adding a half-day for review of the fellowship program. In this case, one or both site reviewers arrives early and meets with the burn fellowship director, burn center director, and fellow(s) and reviews supplemental materials requested for on-site review.
