EPA Cascading Basic COVID-19 Prevention & Management TrainingsAs part of their professional obligation to live up to and social responsibilities that the public expects them to do, the consortium of 11 health professional associations in Ethiopia managed to win a project grant from the Federal Ministry of Health to provide basic COVID-19 prevention and management capacity building training to health workforce working at health facilities in all regions of Ethiopia.

The basic training is currently being conducted throughout the country and professional associations, EPA included, are assigned to specific regions to operate.
