The ESSM School of Sexual Medicine is run with the support of the European Society for Sexual Medicine (ESSM), the International Society for Sexual Medicine (ISSM) and the European Federation of Sexology (EFS). The first “Oxford Course” was run in 2007; this year as in the previous year, we will deliver a learning curriculum based upon the UEMS Joint Committee for Sexual Medicine, The ESSM Manual of Sexual Medicine and the EFS/ESSM Syllabus of Clinical Sexology. Our programme is intended for clinicians seeking to acquire the knowledge and skills essential for practice in Sexual Medicine and Clinical Sexology. Medically qualified participants should find the programme helpful when preparing for the Fellowship of the European Committee of Sexual Medicine examination (more info www.mjcsm.org). Psychologists will find the program helpful as well for the preparation of the EFS & ESSM exam for qualification as Psycho-Sexologist (more info www.essm.org/education-certifications/certifications/). So far, participants from Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, Middle East and the Americas have taken part in the school programme; they include specialists in andrology, endocrinology, family medicine, gynaecology, internal medicine, psychiatry, urology, surgery, oncology and psychology.
