The 2026 HALM exam will be administered Nov. 9 through Nov. 23.

The exam is conducted online through Pearson VUE’s remote-proctored platform. Details can be found on ABEM’s website at https://www.abem.org/public/become-certified/subspecialties/halm. Questions may be directed to ABEM staff at [email protected].
