Application process

Applying is straightforward. Complete the secure Fellowship application form and upload your CV — your submission goes directly to the EUSTM Academy Educational Board.

The Board evaluates your record and assigns one of two routes. Category One, the Distinguished Record Pathway, confers the Fellowship on the strength of your career track record and senior contribution to the field — no examination. Category Two, the Examination Pathway, is for candidates who qualify by completing a proctored online examination. If you are unsure which applies, the Board assigns your route after reviewing your application.

Once your route is confirmed, you sign the Fellowship Conditions Form and pay the applicable fee. Your Fellowship is then conferred, together with the right to use the FAcadEUSTM post-nominal designation.
