ESGO Curriculum ESGO Curriculum Committed to the cause of excellence in care and education, since 2010 ESGO aims to establish multidisciplinary standards for care in training and ovarian cancer surgery, and acts as the European authority in the field of gynaecological oncology. Requirements of gynaecological oncology increased, surgery has become more complex, oncological care has become more multidisciplinary and evidence is required also for modules and assessments during training. The ESGO “new” Curriculum (compulsory as of January 1, 2021) has been mainly based on and around competence and structure of the general basic training in obstetrics and gynaecology. The eLogbook has been provided for training in gynaecological oncology and is compulsory for all fellows undergoing the ESGO certified training. Note that: The training includes a minimum of two (2) and at the most three (3) clinical years of full-time equivalent (FTE) training according to a prospectively approved programme in an ESGO-accredited Gynaecological Oncology unit. Successful completion of the Curriculum and a passing mark on the ESGO theoretical Exam are mandatory requirements for obtaining the ESGO certification. The ESGO Exam must be passed within six (6) years from the formal start of training. Modules of another specialty (e.g., radiotherapy, medical oncology, surgery) may be followed for up to six (6) months within the fellowship programme. The portfolio must be completed within four (4) years after the formal start of training. Retrospective fulfilment of the criteria, e.g., completion of the portfolio over years of oncological practice without a registered and defined training programme, is not allowed.
