I will say that I recently became board certified in 2021 and I have
already begun to complete the first three year recert period. MOSC is not
the best service nor do I agree with how we have to recert in terms of
requirements but time does move fast so I am trying to stay as proactive as
I can with it.

To the Onc Clinical Specialists in the second cohort,
My 2 cents - You may want to get your portfolio started as it is easier to
input information/activities including patient care hours, leadership and
service when they are fresh in your head. In addition, it is helpful to
take a look at the case reflection requirements.
Other clinical specialists whom have begun to complete their online
portfolio and case reflection requirements, please feel free to chime in.
Describing how you are going about the completing the online maintenance
portfolio and case reflection requirements that must be completed every 3
years May be helpful to other clinical specialists as this is the first
time through this process:)
Cheers,
CP
