Abstract
The fifth European examination of the Occupational Medicine Specialty will take place on October 21st, 2024 in Brussels.
The exam can be taken by any specialist in Occupational Medicine but is especially aimed at residents in their final year or those who have recently completed the specialty. The content of the exam complies with the European Training Requirements. On the website of the UEMS Occupational Medicine Section2 you can find the recommended bibliography to prepare for the exam, testimonials from the candidates themselves, as well as other detailed information on registration, exam fees and accommodation in Brussels, where the exams are held3.
Through this article we proceed to disseminate the call for the exam to make it known to possible interested participants. Given that the main recipients are final year trainees, the different Teaching Units, the Spanish National Commission for the Specialty of Occupational Medicine, and the Scientific Societies of Occupational Medicine have also been informed.
