organised by the ESHRE Special Interest Group Nursing and Midwifery

This course will help nurses and midwives to prepare for the exam of the ESHRE nurses and midwives certification. All topics from the curriculum for exam applicants for the ESHRE nurses and midwives certification that are not yet available as a presentation on eCampus will be covered during the course. Therefore our speakers will include professionals from various backgrounds such as: embryologists (e.g. a talk on lab aspects of fertility treatments), gynecologists (e.g. talk on pathology and women’s fertility), and other professionals (e.g. quality manager). In addition, exam applicants will have the opportunity to speak to members of the Nurses and Midwives Certification Committee (incl. ESHRE certified nurses and midwives). The course was developed for experienced reproductive medicine nurses and midwives preparing to take the ESHRE certification exam in one of the upcoming years. Of course, it can also be of value to nurses, midwives, and other health care professionals working in the field of reproductive medicine.

a. Get an overview of what you need to study for the exam to become an ESHRE certified nurse or midwife;
b. be able to ask questions to experts whilst preparing for the exam to become an ESHRE certified nurse or midwife;
c. be introduced to the broad interdisciplinary field of reproductive medicine.

To apply for the ESHRE nurses and midwives certification, one needs to have a nursing or midwifery degree. To take the ESHRE exam for certification, one needs to have filled out the logbook. However, this is not a requirement for taking the course.
