A special agreement exists with the American Board of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ABMGG) whereby an applicant may fulfill the training requirements for certification in pediatrics and medical genetics and genomics by completing four years of combined training. The training in programs must also be approved prospectively by both the ABP and the ABMGG. All training should be completed in the same combined training program; any deviation must be approved prospectively by both the ABP and the ABMGG. An applicant may not take the certifying examination of the ABP until all training requirements in both programs have been successfully completed.

Note: The guidelines for combined training in Pediatrics and Medical Genetics and Genomics had previously required five years of training until 2014.
