EQA Assessment

The aim of this module is to provide an online competency assessment for the classification of HRR gene variants related to breast / ovarian and prostate cancer. This assessment is open to individuals who classify the pathogenicity of variants and aimed to provide assurance of competence to accurately achieve this in the most up-to-date manner.

For each ONLINE assessment, participants receive six variants to classify within four weeks.  Participants can choose to classify some or all of the variants.   For each variant classification submitted, participants should also provide the criteria evidence for their classification.  

The classifications and evidence are pre-agreed by an international panel of experts.
