In-Training Assessment

The In-Training Assessment (ITA) is a Multiple Choice Question (MCQ) test which uses the same questions as the Part I European Diploma in Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care. There are two MCQ papers, of sixty questions each. Paper A is confined to the basic sciences and Paper B includes clinical anaesthesia, internal medicine, and intensive care. 

The ITA is held on the same date as the Part I Diploma Examination and they use the same questions. Also, like the Diploma examination, the ITA can be taken in: English, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Russian or Spanish.

Trainees may sit the ITA at any stage in their training, either in selected training departments accredited by the ESA Examinations Committee or in the European Diploma Part I Examination Centres. Registered Specialists, wishing to assess their knowledge, may also sit the ITA.

Individuals who sit the ITA examination receive detailed feedback on their performance in the different subject areas covered by the examination as well as comparison with their peers both nationally and throughout Europe.

Applicants must apply according to the ITA regulations.

ITA Candidates registering for the Berne centre should apply from the SSAR-SGAR website.
