Through its program of certification, the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG®) assesses whether international medical graduates are ready to enter residency or fellowship programs in the United States that are accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).

ECFMG offers a variety of other programs and services to physicians educated abroad and other members of the international medical community. Detailed information on ECFMG Certification and ECFMG’s other programs and services is available on this site and in the ECFMG Information Booklet
