1. Federal exam “EPS EXPERT/-E EN CYTODIAGNOSTIC”:The federal exam ‘EPS expert cytodiagnostics’ stayed the main topic also of the second annual meeting. After the last meeting a letter was sent to OdaSanté pointing out the tremendous costs of the exam. OdaSanté asked us to submit concrete suggestions on how to reduce costs by October. A meeting of OdaSanté and members of the sponsorship for the exam will take place in December to discuss the propositions.
1. Federal exam “EPS EXPERT/-E EN CYTODIAGNOSTIC”:The date for the next exam has been postponed to 2020 and will not place as originally planned in 2019 (https://www.epsante.ch/fr/professions/eps-experte-en-cytodiagnostic/). The excessive administrative costs of the exam led to this postponement. As of now, the Swiss Federation only covers 60% of the exam costs and not as initially projected 80%.
Nous sommes fiers d’avoir enfin posé la première pierre. Les trois premières candidates ont réussi avec succès le plus haut examen helvétique de notre spécialité et sont maintenant autorisées porter le titre d'expert-e EPS en Cytodiagnostic, avec fierté.
