Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Certification
The Federal Ministry of Health (FMOH) in Ethiopia has initiated a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) program to enhance the competencies of health professionals through standardized in-service training. The program’s primary goal is to ensure quality health services delivered by competent professionals while linking Continuing Education Units (CEUs) to license renewal requirements.
Credit Allocation and Requirements
- Health professionals must earn at least 30 CEUs per year and 90 CEUs every three years for re-licensure.
- A maximum of 15 CEUs can be earned from a single CPD course.
- CEUs can only be awarded for a particular course once within a licensure period.
- CPD points cannot be transferred across budget years.
