The European Board of Medical Assessors warmly invite you to our Annual European Conference on Assessment in Medical Education at the University of Algarve, Faro, Portugal.
The conference theme for 2025 is Integrating Technology, Evidence and Quality in Assessments for Health Professions Education and will take place from 2-5 April 2024. The conference is an excellent opportunity for your professional development and to network with international colleagues. Keynote presentations will be given by Professor Olle ten Cate, Dr Dario Cecilio-Fernandes, Dr Marjan Govaerts and Professor Wim Gjselaars. The programme will consist of short symposia, workshops, oral and poster presentations drawn from abstracts submitted by conference attendees. Following feedback from EBMA 2024 we have extended the 2025 conference length by 1 day, whilst working hard to keep the cost at 2024 levels.
We are now inviting participants to submit abstracts on the following topics:
- Workplace based Assessments
- Progress Testing
- Progression decisions and certifications
- Post graduate assessment
- Clinical reasoning
- Assessment of clinical and professional practice
- Delivery by computer
- Feedback
- Assessment misconduct
- Assessment technologies including artificial intelligence
- Other areas aligned to assessment in health professions education
Abstract submission is now open and we welcome submissions of all interests for posters, oral presentations, and workshops. Full abstract submission guidance and further information on the conference can be found on our webpage.
New Abstract deadline 23 February 2025. We are able to provide an early author notification on 1 December, for those who require more time to arrange travel, and final author notification on 3 March 2025.
We look forward to receiving your abstracts and welcoming you to Faro in April.
