The Ethiopian Midwives Association (EMwA) CPD Center successfully facilitated two rounds of Comprehensive Family Planning (CFP) training for DKT Ethiopia from June 10–28, 2018, at the EMwA CPD Center in Addis Ababa.

The accredited 11-day competency-based training equipped 36 health professionals, including nurses, general practitioners, midwives, and health officers from DKT-supported private health facilities in Addis Ababa, Dire Dawa, and Oromia, with updated knowledge and practical skills in comprehensive family planning methods.

The training combined six days of interactive classroom learning with five days of supervised clinical practice. Participants practiced the insertion and removal of Implanon, Jadelle, and IUCDs using anatomical models before undertaking hands-on practice at high-volume clinical sites under the guidance of experienced trainers and mentors.

Participants were assessed through pre- and post-tests, skills check-outs, and daily and end-of-course evaluations. Upon successful completion, all trainees received certificates carrying 15 Continuing Education Units (CEUs). The training reflects EMwA’s continued commitment to strengthening health workers’ competencies and supporting the delivery of high-quality, client-centered family planning servicesin Ethiopia.
