IMPORTANT NOTE:

Concerning the eligibility criteria of our intermediate examination
(i.e. the conjoint IEEM/MCEM from 2010 till 2012)

• No scheduled stand alone or independent IEEM planned for 2010-2012*
• All applicants must fulfill the minimum requirements of MCEM before they are allowed to sit
  the examination (Please click here to download the reference file)
• Trainee applicants and Training supervisors are advised to visit the CEM website for current
  eligibility criteria
• Please inform trainees:
  • It is necessary to have completed 12 months internship AND 24 months training post
    full-registration (i.e. a total of 36 months including internship)
  • PEEM is recognized as equivalent to MCEM Part A.  Therefore candidates should attempt
    PEEM (or MCEM Part A) for their Part 1 qualification
  • Please discuss with the training supervisor or any Member of the College
    Education Committee / Examination Committee if there is any query
• Please note that:
• MHKICBSC Part 1&2 is not accepted by CEM
• MRCS Parts 1&2, and MRCP Part 1 will not be accepted by CEM after 2010*. 
  For the holders of MRCS Parts 1&2 and MRCP Part 1, they might be allowed for re-sit
  after 2010, but NOT first-time enrolment in the exam after 2010. Therefore, trainees,
  who have not yet had Part 1 qualification, should be advised to attempt PEEM
  (instead of the others which were accepted in the past)

Remarks: * HKCEM will continue to negotiate with UK CEM:

• to see if CEM would provide assistance in running an IEEM alone examination but this is not
  an option at present.  Training Supervisors should inform candidates.
• to see if some HK candidates with MRCS Parts 1&2 or MRCP Part 1, who were eligible for IEEM
  before Mar 2010 and with 24+ months experience but not fulfilling CEM criteria, can also be
  examined.
