The Saudi Commission for Health Specialties yesterday concluded its participation in the Association for Medical Education in Europe Conference (AMEE 2025), which was held this year in Barcelona, Spain, from August 23 to 27, 2025, under the theme “Innovating Medical Education: Shaping the Future of Healthcare Learning.” The conference brought together a distinguished group of international experts and specialists in health and medical education.
SCFHS participated in AMEE 2025 as a Gold Sponsor, contributing four scientific presentations that showcased its experience in health education across training, assessment, and professional development. The first presentation highlighted the “Daem” Program and its role as a national umbrella initiative supporting the mental health and well-being of trainees and healthcare practitioners. The second presentation addressed the Code Blue (“Serious Incidents”) Project in training, which serves as a national framework for enhancing the quality of the training environment.
The third presentation focused on the National E-Learning Self-Directed Program for Continuing Professional Development related to the Medical Certificate of Cause of Death (MCCOD), while the fourth contribution was a scientific poster on faculty development in health education through the launch of innovative, technology-driven programs. In addition, the Commission organized a workshop on advancing primary healthcare training, discussing an enhanced training model aligned with current needs at both the local and international levels.
SCFHS’s pavilion attracted strong interest from conference attendees, who learned about its role, experiences, and achievements in medical education, as well as the modern educational approaches adopted in its postgraduate Saudi Board programs. These approaches have resulted in high-quality learning environments for trainers and trainees, grounded in contemporary health education principles. Through this participation, the Commission aims to strengthen its international presence by building effective strategic partnerships with academic and professional institutions, exchanging expertise with leading global entities, and keeping pace with the latest innovations in education, assessment, and technologies within the healthcare training sector.
