The Core Osteopathic Recognition Readiness Examination (CORRE) was a collaboration between the American Academy of Osteopathy (AAO) and the NBOME and was administered between August 2018 and April 2023.

The examination was designed for non-DO physicians or medical students applying to an Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) residency program with Osteopathic Recognition (OR). CORRE assessed understanding of the foundations of osteopathic care, including osteopathic concepts, philosophy, diagnosis, and technique.

In the absence of CORRE and consistent with the purpose of CORRE, the NBOME recommends continuing medical education or professional development programs focused on Osteopathic Principles and Practices and Osteopathic Manipulative Techniques from the following organizations:

• American Academy of Osteopathy (AAO)
• American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine (AACOM) and/or the Assembly of Osteopathic Graduate Medical Educators (AOGME)
• American Osteopathic Association (AOA) or the American College of Osteopathic Family Physicians (ACOFP)
• A college of osteopathic medicine accredited by the AOA Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation
