Every person applying for
(1) A completed and verified application

evidence of graduation from a medical or osteopathic school approved by the
board. The board recognizes as approved those medical or osteopathic schools
accredited at the time of the applicant's graduation therefrom by the American
Osteopathic Association, or the Liaison Committee on Medical Education, or
their successors. If an applicant is not a graduate of a medical school
approved by the board, but is a graduate of a medical school recognized and
listed as such by the World Directory of Medical Schools or its predecessor the
International Medical Education Directory, such applicant shall submit verified
documentary evidence of graduation from such school and also verified
documentary evidence of having passed the examinations required by the
Educational Council for Foreign Medical Graduates or successors, and shall also
present for the board's inspection the originals thereof, and if such medical
school requires either social service or internship or both of its graduates,
and if the applicant has not completed either such required social service or
internship or both, such applicant shall also submit verified documentary
evidence of having completed a 12 month supervised clinical training program
under the direction of a medical school approved by the board.
(3)

Verification of satisfactory completion by the applicant of 24 months of
postgraduate training in one or more programs accredited by the Accreditation
Council for Graduate Medical Education, the American Osteopathic Association,
or a successor organization; or documentary evidence that the applicant is
currently enrolled in a postgraduate training program accredited by the
Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education, the American Osteopathic
Association, or the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, or a
successor organization and has received credit for 12 consecutive months of
postgraduate training in that program and an unrestricted endorsement from the
postgraduate training director that the applicant is expected to complete at
least 24 months of postgraduate training.
(b) If an applicant is a graduate of a
foreign allopathic or osteopathic medical school, then the applicant must

postgraduate training in one or more programs accredited by the Accreditation
Council for Graduate Medical Education, the American Osteopathic Association,
the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, or a successor
organization; or documentary evidence that the applicant is currently enrolled

program and an unrestricted endorsement from the postgraduate training director
that the applicant is expected to complete at least 24 months of postgraduate
training.
(c) If the applicant
possesses a medical license issued by another jurisdiction and has not
completed 24 months of postgraduate training approved by the board and is not
currently enrolled in a postgraduate training program but the applicant has
other professional experience which the applicant believes has given that
applicant the education and training substantially equivalent to 24 months of
postgraduate training, then the applicant may submit the documented education
and training demonstrating substantially equivalent education and training. The
board will review the documented education and training and may make further
inquiry, including a personal interview of the applicant, as the board deems
necessary to determine whether substantial equivalence in fact exists. The
burden of proof of such equivalence shall lie upon the applicant. If the board
finds that the documented education and training is substantially equivalent to
the required training and experience the board may grant a waiver of the
requirements under par. (a) or (b).
(cm) An applicant may apply to the board for
waiver of the requirements of par. (a) or (b) on grounds of prolonged illness
or disability or other similar hardship, and each case will be considered
individually on its merits by the board.

programs accredited by the following organizations: the Accreditation Council
for Graduate Medical Education, the American Osteopathic Association, the

Pre-Registration of Physician Training Programs of Canada, or their successor
organizations.
