The ABPS Board Certification Schedule for 2016

One of the central components to earning board certification through the American Board of Physician Specialties® is the successful completion of a standardized, psychometrically validated examination. We use computer-based testing for all of our written examinations, which are offered at a network of testing centers throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada. In order to be eligible for ABPS board certification or re-certification examination you must apply before the published deadline.

The complete application and examination schedule for 2016 can be found by clicking here.

Upon successful completion of the written examination, candidates in select specialties will be invited to schedule an oral examination. However, it is important to note that not all specialties require an oral examination.

The list of specialties that require an oral examination in Tampa, Fla., as well as the anticipated examination dates, can also be found by clicking here.

Finally, all candidates for our written and oral examinations are responsible for arranging and financing all travel necessary to complete their examinations, and the ABPS is not responsible for reimbursing lost wages, travel costs, and other expenses incurred.
