The BLS CPD course at UDST was exceptionally well organized, with excellent preparation, relevant online materials, and outstanding instructors. The hands-on sessions and simulated cardiac arrest scenarios provided valuable opportunities to practice teamwork and develop essential resuscitation skills in a realistic environment.

From a professional perspective, the course helped reinforce critical clinical skills while also contributing Category 1 and Category 3 CPD credits toward my DHP licensure requirements. It was a valuable, high-quality learning experience.

Collaborating with the University of Doha for Science and Technology's College of Health Sciences to deliver continuing professional development activities has been a highly rewarding experience, reflecting the value of strong academic–clinical partnerships in advancing midwifery practice. As part of the first General Midwifery Orientation (GMO) Program at PHCC, we delivered simulation-based learning that enabled participants to apply their knowledge through structured antenatal, intrapartum, and postnatal scenarios, including emergency management and role-play.

Facilitating this CPD activity reinforced the importance of experiential learning in strengthening clinical competence, critical thinking, and patient safety. From a professional perspective, CPD is essential for maintaining high standards of evidence-based, woman-centered care.

The collaboration with the College of Health Sciences has made a meaningful contribution to developing a competent and confident midwifery workforce. The professionalism and academic excellence of UDST have strengthened this partnership and supported the continued development of healthcare professionals.
