European board examination
The UEMS-EBDV board examination covers the specialties of dermatology and venereology and has been held annually since 2006.[1] Trainees are eligible to sit the examination when they have fulfilled the requirements of their national training body or when approaching the end of their training.[5] Candidates who successfully passed the board examination and are certified specialists in a UEMS member state can call themselves 'Fellow of the European Board of Dermatology-Venereology' (FEBDV), other successful candidates are considered 'European Board Certified'.[6] The European examinations are compulsory in some member states.[7]
