Özet

Objective: The purpose of the present paper was to provide information about the Turkish Society of Hematology Proficiency Exam and to raise awareness about continuing medical education and proficiency certification. Method: The data of the theoretical proficiency exams organized by the Turkish Society of Hematology since 2010 and the participation of Turkish hematologists in the European Hematology Examinations organized since 2017 were evaluated in the study. The number of hematology assistants and specialists who applied for the exam and the success levels of the participants were investigated. Results: A total of 10 Hematology Proficiency Written Exams have been administered since 2010 and a total of 108 candidates applied for the exam. A total of 53.7% (58 candidates) of the test takers were female and 46.3% (50 candidates) were male. According to the results of the proficiency exam that has been applied since 2010, almost all of the candidates (99%) were successful in the exam. The proficiency oral/practical exam was held for the first time on 29.04.2023. Conclusion: Proficiency exams are essential to provide an ideal level and standardization in hematology education. When compared to the European Hematology Examination, participation in the proficiency exam is lower than expected in our country. Hematologists should be encouraged to participate in the Hematology Proficiency Exam organized by the Hematology Medical Specialization Qualification Commission (HEM-TUYEK). Hematologists must also be supported to have a certificate of competence, which is an indicator of professionalism and continuous medical education.
