Full CPE Waiting List

November 12, 2025

To register for the full CPE through the NEB, eligible candidates will need to join the full CPE Waiting List from the NEB Candidate Portal. The full CPE waiting list will continue to be opened until maximum capacity is reached. Once maximum capacity has been reached, it will be closed. Candidates are required to pay 50% of the full CPE exam fees when registering for the full CPE waiting list. The remaining 50% of the CPE fee is due 45 days prior to the scheduled exam. You can access the Schedule of Fees here.

Candidates registering for the Full CPE Waiting List should note that seats are assigned, not offered. Waitlisted candidates will be informed if they have been assigned to a session at least eight (8) weeks before the scheduled exam. If you join the waiting list, you may be assigned a seat as early as eight (8) weeks from the date of registration. Candidates who do not wish to keep the assigned seat must refer to the Refund and Withdrawal Policies.

Please use the Message function in the NEB Candidate Portal to send your completed Surgical Experience Documentation upon registration. You can obtain a copy of the document here
