SECEC/ESSSE Certification
Welcome
Dear SECEC/ESSSE member,
we are pleased to welcome you to our website for the application of the SECEC/ESSSE Shoulder and Elbow certificate.
The SECEC/ESSSE as a scientific society formed an optional advanced training with the focus on shoulder and elbow surgery. The aim is a structured and standardized curriculum with theoretical knowledge and practical skills in the treatment of diseases and injuries of the shoulder and elbow joint.
SECEC/ESSSE Certification
The curriculum is based on the SECEC/ESSSE patronage system for events in the field of shoulder and elbow surgery. The aim is to offer and certify structured training in shoulder and elbow surgery. The curriculum is based on thematically defined modules. For each module, a minimum number of attended hours is defined.
The cooperation with other orthopaedic as well as shoulder and elbow societies is based on the mutual recognition and complementation of training events and is well coordinated. The total number of hours (100 for shoulder and 50 for elbow surgery) can be achieved in several courses. In addition, a fellowship must be obtained during the curriculum at a certified SECEC/ESSSE center.
Application for a Certificate
Once you have reached the required number of hours by attending SECEC/ESSSE certified courses, you can use this website to create an application for the SECEC/ESSSE certificate and email it to the SECEC/ESSSE office. See below for further instructions.
Good luck with your application!
