The next EuroCMR exam will take place on Saturday, 19th May from 15:00 – 18:00.

Recognition of training in CMR can be obtained at three levels, with different requirements for each level. All certification requires candidates to demonstrate they have acquired knowledge from appropriate sources and developed skills in the clinical practice of CMR.
Levels 2 and 3 require the completion of a case logbook and passing the EuroCMR exam.
