Islamabad: With a view to enhancing knowledge and skills of healthcare professionals, the National University of Sciences & Technology (NUST) has introduced a comprehensive 6-month certificate in Healthcare Professions Education (CHPE).

The programme is geared towards advancing healthcare services vis-à-vis patient experiences and overall healthcare outcomes.
