About Conference

The 16th National Conference on Health Professions Education (NCHPE)–2025 is being hosted by Christian Medical College & Hospital, Ludhiana. Since 2019, India has embraced Competency-Based Education (CBE) across various health sciences, including medicine, dentistry, nursing, physiotherapy, and allied health professions, creating a truly integrated and contextual learning environment. What began in medical education has now expanded into a broader framework, setting the stage for a dynamic landscape in Health Professions Education (HPE) in CBE. In today’s healthcare systems, both education and practice are increasingly interdisciplinary, with professionals from diverse fields working collaboratively in integrated teams. In this spirit, the conference brings together stakeholders from a wide range of backgrounds—educators, students, clinicians, researchers, assessors, regulators and policy makers—to encourage dynamic interdisciplinary dialogue, foster collaboration and drive innovation in CBE and HPE.

Theme: Dynamic Landscape of Health Professional Education in Competency Based Education

Health professional education is rapidly evolving with the shift toward Competency-Based Education (CBE), a model that prioritizes the demonstration of skills, knowledge, and attitudes essential for safe and effective clinical practice. Moving beyond traditional time-bound curricula, CBE emphasizes learner-centered approaches, real-world application, and measurable outcomes through frameworks like Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) and milestones. This dynamic transformation is supported by advancements in educational technology, simulation, and interprofessional learning, fostering adaptive, practice-ready professionals. As global health challenges become more complex, CBE ensures that health professionals are not only clinically competent but also equipped with critical soft skills such as communication, teamwork, and ethical decision-making, making it a cornerstone for the future of healthcare education.
