Program Requirements and Milestones
The core subspecialty training curriculum for each UCNS-recognized subspecialty is developed by experts from leading institutions across the country who are appointed by the subspecialty’s sponsoring organization(s). UCNS-accredited fellowship programs demonstrate their compliance with the curriculum standards through a peer-reviewed process with the oversight of Accreditation Council. Graduates of UCNS-accredited programs are eligible to apply for UCNS certification examinations.
The requirements and milestones are reviewed at a minimum of every five years and changes may be proposed by the Accreditation Council for approval by the Board of Directors after a 30-day stakeholder comment period.
