Director’s Message

The Constitution of Nepal recognizes basic healthcare as a fundamental human right, placing the responsibility on the state to ensure access to quality health services. Skilled health care service providers are the backbone to translate the constitutional mandates into a reality. The National Health Training Center (NHTC) was established in 1993 to enhance the technical and managerial skills of healthcare providers at all levels, aiming to improve the overall health status of Nepali citizens.

In the federal context, NHTC serves as a federal agency responsible for overseeing health training activities across the nation while coordinating with provincial and local levels. It focuses on delivering quality training, monitoring and evaluating programs, conducting follow-ups, and engaging in research. The ongoing training initiatives are aligned with national health policies, international commitments, and the needs of various divisions and centers under the Ministry of Health and Population. NHTC collaborates with seven Provincial Health Training Centers (PHTCs) and 64 clinical training sites to implement these programs, continuously assessing the performance of both trained professionals and training sites.

I would like to express my heartfelt appreciation for the support and collaboration we have received over the years. Your contributions have been crucial to our success, and I look forward to further collaboration in the future. We welcome your valuable suggestions, feedback, and inquiries, as they help us improve and foster meaningful partnerships.

Thank you for visiting our website. Together, let’s strive for excellence in healthcare education and training.
