  • It will be taken into account that related to the area of medicine, which is only valid for professions related to the social security system in health from the registration to advance the mandatory social service or obtaining the professional card (Decree 616 of 2021).
  • Work experience must be certified by the head of the Human Resources Office, Head of Personnel or Human Talent of the entity where you have worked. In order for this documentation to be taken into account, it must contain the dates that allow calculating the calendar time of each experience.
  • If two or more work experience documents certify overlapping linking dates, the sum of calendar time will be taken into account, regardless of the certified linking time on each document. For example, a certificate from January 1 to March 31, 2019 together with another from February 1 to December 31, 2019 will count as 12 months of experience (from January 1 to December 31, 2019) and not as 14 months, as could be inferred from adding the independent time each certificate.
  • Contracts signed to carry out an activity are not considerable to prove professional experience since they constitute a promise and not evidence of a fulfilled fact.

2. Foreign language certificate, issued by the UIS Language Institute, as previously explained. For applicants who have two foreign language certifications, only the certificate that gives the highest score will be taken into account.

3. Distinctions or awards for academic performance. Only academic distinctions obtained during training or practice as a doctor will be taken into account. That is, and by way of example, labor, union, religious or civil distinctions will not be taken into account, nor those obtained during high school or other studies, as well as “nominations” for a distinction or having a “top five” or “top ten” type certificate, since the latter do not constitute having achieved the distinction or award for which it was chosen.

 

4. The weighted average in undergraduate Medicine, including year of internship, according to valid certification issued by the university from which the applicant is graduated. The grades of other undergraduate or postgraduate degrees that the applicant has advanced will not be taken into account.

5. Effective publications in the field of human medicine.

  • To assign score in this field, the supports must allow to verify that the applicant is an author and identify without a doubt the name of the journal or book, and the year in which it was made. Thus, the score will be assigned according to the classification of the journal in each year according to Publindex del Ministerio de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación de Colombia.
  • The proceedings of congresses and other scientific events are not considered publications by themselves.

  • The letter of acceptance of the editor of the journal that will publish an article is valid, as long as its date of issue is prior to the closing date of this call and allows validating the authorship of the applicant.

6. The records of participation with papers in congress of the field of human medicine:

  • It must be evident, without a doubt, that the aspirant is an author.
  • The content of the paper should be derived from original research. That is, certifications will not be taken into account in which it is indicated that the applicant is an assistant, lecturer, organizer or sponsor, among others.
