Abstract

 Accreditation of medical education is a formal
certification process that verifies the quality of
medical education programs and assesses the
effectiveness of medical schools in training
future doctors. This process is crucial for
ensuring patient safety and the competence of
practising physicians. Typically, accreditation
is carried out by national governments or
agencies authorised by them .
Postgraduate medical education (PGME)
accreditation extends this process to residency
and fellowship training. It ensures that
curricula, supervision, assessment, and clinical
learning environments effectively prepare
independent and safe specialists. The World
Federation for Medical Education (WFME)
2023 PGME Standards serve as the primary
global reference framework for this
accreditation.
