To become a surgeon, gynecologist, pediatrician, neurologist, orthopedist, after graduating in Medicine you need to do 4-5 years of specialization school. At the beginning of November 18 thousand new trainees will begin the courses, in addition to the other 34 thousand who are already attending. Land Postgraduate schools accredited by the ministries of health and the university today are 1,326. The requirements are: competent professors, adequate number of tutors, equipped laboratories, hospital wards connected to schools to guarantee specific training with a minimum number of surgeries performed. These standards were defined, for the first time, in 2017 with a decree wanted by the then ministers Beatrice Lorenzin and Valeria Fedeli. Accreditation can also be given on a provisional basis to schools that do not meet all the requirements, as long as they guarantee to comply within two years with the presentation of an adaptation plan (art.8, legislative decree 402/2017). Who has to decide who qualifies and who does not have the National Observatory for Specialized Health Training (established in 1999), and which depends on the ministry of the University.
Today there are 85 postgraduate schools not in place, of which 12 for five years, 3 for four, 7 for three, 3 for two years.
