ESGO Training LOG BOOK
As per the 1st of January 2021, fellows pursuing ESGO Certification have to follow the Curriculum.
As this now entails assessments that are both structural, i.e. regular and therefore multiple, as well as structured and digitalization.
The new eLogbook is now fully available on-line.
ESGO is aware that training has become more intense and structured, putting extra strain on both the trainees and staff.
You will be able to complete assessments or document activities on any computer – in theatre, ward, or clinic – so no excuse not to fill out an assessment after an operation! The uniform scoring of assessments allows real-time monitoring (and correction) of your progress in proficiency, knowledge, and professional conduct. Finally, at the end of your training no need to rumble through your drawers and assemble a paper logbook.
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 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.

"Performing ESGO fellowship in an ESGO-accredited center is the best way to boost your surgical skills, theoretical knowledge, and clinical judgement in gynecologic oncology. It is a unique journey through which a young gynecologic oncologist can build a solid career. It also gives the crucial opportunity to improve patients’ care with scientific research. The new curriculum has been designed in order to make sure the quality of training of each fellow hits the highest possible standards!”
