Management of the activities of the All-Russian public organization "Medical League of Russia"

The All–Russian public organization "Medical League of Russia" is an association of experts who, since 2011, have been involved in improving the quality of medical education, including through state and professional-public accreditation procedures. The organization conducts an independent assessment of the quality of educational programs at various levels, ensuring that information about the examination results is open and accessible. Currently, the Medical League of Russia consists of one hundred ninety nine highly qualified experts. Professional and public accreditation, being a practice-oriented assessment tool, allows assessing the quality of graduate training in accordance with the requirements of the labour market. Since the establishment of the Medical League of Russia, more than 50 professional and public accreditation procedures have been carried out in educational institutions of medical and pharmaceutical profile. In 2022–2024, more than 200 educational programs were examined. The assessment system is constantly being improved: The average expert assessment of educational programs is increasing, and the number of institutions participating in the accreditation procedure is growing. The plans for further development include the legislative consolidation of mandatory professional and public accreditation for medical and pharmaceutical institutions, the introduction of automated educational quality assessment services and the development of new assessment methods. The Medical League of Russia also organizes professional competitions and contributes to improving the quality of educational services through the involvement of experts and employers in evaluating the medical education system.
