Apply for Certification
Log in to Your ABEM Portal
The ABEM Portal is your hub for applications, exam scores, status updates, and more! If you don’t have an account yet, here’s how to get started:
- Go to your ABEM Portal and click “Need a User ID?” underneath the “Sign In” button.
- Once you gain access, update your profile information. Use an email that you check regularly and is not tied to your school. Email is ABEM’s main form of communication.
- Bookmark your ABEM Portal page. (Optional)
Submit an Application
ABEM will email application information in mid-April to residents graduating in the current application period. Whitelist and look for emails that come from abem@abem.org.
