Methods of the training include interactive lectures, workshops, clinical cases study and practical skills. It is mandatory to evaluate the classes, coaches, and training as a whole. Educational materials include multimedia lecture presentations, handouts for each training participant.

At the same time, there are plans to introduce the developed online training courses on NCDs, for the successful completion of which family doctors will be able to earn points of continuous professional development.

If they receive quality training on the above issues, there is a real possibility that will have a positive impact on the outcomes of NCDs prevention for their patients.
