Letter from the Chairman


Dear Colleagues

The Exam of the European Board of Orthopaedics and Traumatology (EBOT) is now in its 10th year and as we have advertised it is now time for us to change its format.
The exam in Lisbon this October 2010 will be in the new format that means only section 2 (oral examination). The written exam will be run separately in examining centers throughout Europe, during the month of May. Candidates are required to pass section 1 to proceed to Section 2 . Numbers of applicants are increasing as the prestige of the EBOT qualification spreads around Europe and to the rest of the World. New rules for application have been introduced this year and registration is now online. We are working on the examination for you in Lisbon, gathering experienced examiners from all over Europe and selecting the best venue, so make sure you have your slot confirmed on time!
Despite being placed by the Atlantic , Lisbon is a European city that is served by all main airlines and low costs and it is easy to fly in and out in October so come to Lisbon and have a safe trip and a good examination.
