Greetings from the International Board for Certification of
Specialists in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (IBCSOMS)
After a very successful first examination (pass rate of 89%) of the
International Board held at Bangalore in October 2016, we are back
again. It is very gratifying to note that more than 30 of our surgeons -
including Heads of Institutions, Heads of Departments as well as
rookie surgeons-, today proudly display their diploma FIBCSOMS to
the world as a mark of our effort at finding some common ground
for training around the world.
The 2017 edition of the IBCSOMS exams will be held at Bangalore
from the 25th-28th of October 2017. We have started the process of
inviting applications for the same. You may log into
www.ibcsoms.org for further guidance. The Association of Oral and
Maxillofacial Surgeons of India (AOMSI) has been a well wisher and
supporter of the International Board, and has encouraged its
members to take part in this process. I am glad to inform you that
like last year, this year too, they have promised to provide
scholarships to successful members. Details of this will be available
shortly. Further details regarding matters of the board and the time
table for the Bangalore exams are attached.
Please feel free to contact me at president@aomsi.com (+91
9840141824) for any help regarding this. Wish you all the very best.
Warm regards,
Krishnamurthy Bonanthaya
Vice –President
