American College of Surgeons' Members Only Web Portal
The portal provides users with a personalized gateway to the Internet that (1) facilitates and filters access to Web-based information, (2) initiates and facilitates collaboration and exchange of ideas among members, and (3) provides a secure, single sign-on service that is the entry point of access to organized Web information from the College and other validated and reputable sources. In addition to Fellows of the ACS, other select groups are allowed access to the portal: Associate Fellows of the College, surgical residents and medical students. While several electronic tools are only available to Fellows, there are many resources available to everyone who has access.
