exam
The online applications for the 2026 exam will be open from 15 October 2025 (13.00 CEST) until 09 January 2026 (13.00 CET).
ESHRE's collaboration with the European Board and College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (EBCOG) goes back almost 20 years in setting a syllabus for subspecialty training in reproductive medicine. Now, in a move to enhance this collaboration further and validate individual skills and training in reproductive medicine, ESHRE is introducing a subspecialty exam in which successful candidates will become European Fellows in Reproductive Medicine (EFRM) and qualified to use the title EFRM‐ESHRE/EBCOG.
