ABOMS Examination Committee
Members of the ABOMS Examination Committee perform many duties specific to the Board Certification process. Many members participate as an OCE Examiner, preparing cases for the Oral Certifying Examination (OCE), while some are responsible for creating content for the Qualifying Examination (QE), the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery In-service Training Examination (OMSITE), and our Certification Maintenance (CM) program. The Committee also includes a number of those who have added qualifications and contribute items to our Certificate of Added Qualifications (CAQ) examinations.
Examination Committee members are selected by the Board of Directors at each spring meeting.
