AFREhealth equips health professionals and Faculty with pedagogical skills

National Institutes of Health (NIH): Program update

AFREhealth has provided specialized training to 45 faculty members from 8 countries across Africa, enabling them to improve teaching, research, and education scholarships in higher learning institutions. This was done through its Pedagogical Course for Health Professions Educators.

Following the hands-on taught sessions, the learners, mostly PhD holders, are being mentored by senior faculty members and industry practitioners to enable them to better assimilate into the health professions education. Ninety-one (19) faculty from 20 countries applied to the program but 55 from 15 countries were enrolled due to course capacity. 43 (78.1%) of the 55 completed the course. In our next edition, we will share excerpts of how they are utilizing the skills from the training.

Look out for the announcement of the next cohort at https://afrehealth.org/
