The 4th version of the guide to the Register for European Specialists in Laboratory Medicine (EuSpLM) established by the European Communities Confederation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine describes the transfer of the register to the European Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (EFLM) in 2016, the extension in 2018 of the Register beyond the European Union to Europe and the benefits of membership of the EFLM Academy to which the Register transferred on the Academy's launch in 2019. The Academy offers EuSpLM registrants access to benefits that include reduced registration rates at selected conferences and free subscription to . With effect from 2020 eligibility was extended to anyone with an interest in laboratory medicine. The updated guide describes the electronically driven processes for individual membership and block enrolment from national societies/organisations, and the stepping stones to recognition as an EuSpLM within the Academy. Whilst eligibility for recognition as an EuSpLM remains largely unchanged new expectations across Europe in education, training, professional regulation and qualifications are reflected in updated criteria. The continuing driver for establishing the Academy and growing the EFLM Register reflects the federation's leadership role in the harmonisation of high quality education and training for those with an interest in laboratory medicine as well as ongoing initiatives to establish a Common Training Framework for Specialists in Laboratory Medicine under EU Directive 2013/55/EC (The Recognition of Professional Qualifications).
由欧洲临床化学和检验医学联合会设立的欧洲医学专家实验室检验医学注册指南第 4 版描述了 2016 年该注册向欧洲临床化学和检验医学联合会的转移，2018 年注册在欧盟以外的欧洲地区的扩展，以及在 2019 年注册转移到该联合会的学院后，成为 EFLM 学院会员的好处。该学院为 EuSpLM 注册者提供了一些好处，包括在选定的会议上降低注册费和免费订阅. 自 2020 年起，任何对实验室医学感兴趣的人都有资格获得这些好处。更新后的指南描述了个人会员和国家协会/组织的团体注册的电子驱动流程，以及在学院内获得 EuSpLM 认可的踏脚石。尽管作为 EuSpLM 认可的资格基本保持不变，但欧洲各地在教育、培训、专业监管和资格方面的新期望都反映在更新的标准中。成立学院和扩大 EFLM 注册的持续动力反映了该联合会在协调对实验室医学感兴趣的人的高质量教育和培训方面的领导作用，以及在欧盟指令 2013/55/EC（专业资格认可）下为实验室医学专家建立共同培训框架的持续举措。
