Application Process 2025

The application process, pre-application requirements, application period and exam date will change as from 2025.

Here are the most important changes in a nutshell:

• ESHRE EFRM Certification available to active ESHRE members only. Be sure your membership is active during the whole period until the publication of the results.
• Your eligibility will be validated by the EFRM Steering Committee prior to the application step.

• The online application period for the 2025 exam will be available starting 15 November 2024 (13.00 CET) until 15 January 2025 (13.00 CET).
• The next online EFRM exam (Part 1) will be held mid-March 2025. The exact date will be announced soon.

The online application process will now consist of two separate steps

Step 1: Eligibility criteria validation process

The EFRM Steering Committee will validate your eligibility to sit for the EFRM – Part 1 exam.

Therefore, all applicants will first need to upload all required documents during this step.

After submitting your application, you will receive a payment link for the eligibility validation fee of 100€ (excl. VAT), which is an administrative charge.

Please note that the paid fee is non-refundable under any circumstance.

Only after your eligibility criteria validation has been completed and accepted, will you be able to proceed to step two: the exam payment process.

Step 2: Exam Payment process

After acceptance of your application, you’ll receive a payment link for the exam fee: 400€ (excl. VAT).

Only fully completed applications, for which the exam fee has been received, will be accepted to sit the EFRM exam.

Once your application is accepted, you will receive a notification sent from the application platform.

Please note that the paid fee is non-refundable under any circumstance.

Please note that our Rules & Requirements are under review. Once these are ready, they will be made available on the webpage.
