Please read the following instructions if you have not previously used this system.

• PATHway TO RESIDENT TRACKING
  
  The American Board of Pathology's Pathway to Resident Tracking is now available. All APCP Program Directors should have received a username and password to access Pathway Resident Tracking. If you are an APCP Program Director and have not received this information, please e-mail restrkg@abpath.org and include your name, the program's ACGME name, and your e-mail address. Program Directors can not use the 'Create User Login' function to access Pathway.
  
  All APCP Program Directors who have submitted Pathway Resident Tracking information for the current year (2009-10) have been sent a username and password for each PG3 and PG4 resident in their program. This information will allow each resident to log in to Pathway and access their online applications. If you are an APCP Program Director and have finalized your 2009-10 data and have not received a username and password for each PG3 and PG4 resident, please e-mail restrkg@abpath.org and include your name, the program's ACGME name, and your e-mail address.
  
  An APCP Program Director's username and password are also required to approve applications and submit registration forms. If one of your residents has applied for an ABP examination, you will be notified by e-mail. Instructions for completing the evaluation process are available once you log in. If you have any problems or questions, please e-mail restrkg@abpath.org and include your name, the program's ACGME name, and if applicable, the resident's name.
