A key milestone achieved in the journey toward specialist certification
The East, Central and Southern Africa College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ECSACOG) is pleased to announce the successful completion of the Continuous Assessment Test I (CAT I) by its OB/GYN residents across the region.
The CAT I examination represents a critical checkpoint in the residency training pathway, allowing trainees to demonstrate their foundational knowledge in obstetrics, gynecology, and reproductive health. It forms part of ECSACOG’s comprehensive assessment framework, which is designed to ensure residents meet regional and international standards for specialist practice.
This achievement reflects the dedication, resilience, and academic discipline of ECSACOG trainees, as well as the commitment of training institutions and faculty to delivering high-quality postgraduate education. The examination also serves as a diagnostic tool, helping identify strengths and areas for targeted improvement as residents advance through their academic and clinical training.
ECSACOG congratulates all candidates for reaching this important stage and extends sincere appreciation to the examiners, coordinators, and faculty who supported the successful administration of CAT I across accredited sites.
