How do the American Board of Medical Genetics (ABMG) and the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) differ from ACMG?
All three organizations are dedicated to supporting genetics professionals. They operate independently but often work in conjunction with one another on various projects and issues.

ABMG is the certifying body that accredits medical genetics training programs and conducts certification examinations for and certifies medical geneticists. ABMG also facilitates maintenance of certification for ABMG diplomates.
