Medical Oncologist's Recertification Approval (ESMO-MORA)

The ESMO Medical Oncologist's Recertification Approval (MORA) is a continuing medical education certificate that allows ESMO members to remain certified in medical oncology.

Recertification is necessary for medical oncologists to remain professionally certified by ESMO. Recertification guarantees that a certified medical oncologist has continued to update her/his knowledge and continues to possess the necessary skills and standards for the practice of medical oncology. The certification lasts for a period of 5 years.

How to recertify

  • Adhering to the MORA programme (whose recertification is valid for 5 years)
