Brazilian educational assessment developments
Overview
In mid‑July 2026, Inep posted the definitive results for the first stage of Revalida 2026/1. By 28 July, preliminary results for the second stage of Revalida 2025/2 were released, followed by final results in early September that qualified 5,666 medical professionals for diploma revalidation. Regarding the Enamed 2026, Inep released confirmation cards for the exam, which was administered on 13 September across all Brazilian states and the Federal District. The assessment evaluates medical student learning and undergraduate program quality, and serves as a selection criterion for residency programs. Following the exam, a reapplication was held on 18 October for candidates who missed the original date due to documented logistical issues or infectious diseases. The preliminary answer key for this reapplication was released in October, with the deadline for appeals concluding on 22 October. Final results and the definitive answer key are scheduled for release on 4 December 2026. Starting in 2027, Enamed is slated to become a semiannual exam to better align with the requirements of the Unified Health System (SUS). On 14 October, the Brazilian National Congress approved provisional measure MP 1370/26, making Enamed mandatory for professional registration with Regional Medical Councils (CRMs). Awaiting presidential sanction, the measure applies to students enrolling on or after 19 June 2026. It establishes a three-stage evaluation process at the end of the second, fourth, and sixth years. Students failing to meet proficiency thresholds may receive a restricted ‘Medical Graduate Registration’ (IEM), which allows for technical-scientific purposes but prohibits the practice of medicine. Recent legislative updates have modified the original provisional measure, increasing the number of assessment stages from two to three. Under the revised text, students will undergo evaluations at the end of the 4th, 8th, and 12th semesters.
