ProblemsProblems•Scientific and clinical knowledge in orthopedic has inceased rapidly •Departments (esspecially small) are sometimes overwhelmed by their educational tasks• Teaching of clinical skills is established in the departments•Knowledge over the whole field is not provided (except Universities) and the educational process of knowledge is not standardised•International Certification within the EU is still a problem•The postgraduate education of the residency does not include an academic degree (like MBA)•All MD are the same, which does not reflect specialisation in an academic postgraduate degree

Educational system within the EUEducational system within the EU

•An EU harmonisation programe in educational activities is already in place: Bologna process•Bologna convention includes Bachelor and Master degrees and PhD programes•Postgraduate programes can be established accordingly•Educational programes are standardised in ECTS units•International certification can be achived through accreditation institutions (FIBA)

ProblemsProblems

•National problems in health care are specific, postgraduate education on a centralized EU level can not address those•Centralised exams are probably not the solution of the problem (language, knowledge, aims,…)•Standardized educational systems according to postgraduate educational degrees can be a solution•Why not use the educational system of the EU on the university level to harmonise postgraduate programes ?
