Banjarmasin — The clinical expertise and competence of students at Lambung Mangkurat University (ULM) was once again demonstrated by the achievements of two participants in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Specialist Education Program (PPDS) at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (FKIK) ULM, who passed the National Competency Examination (UKN) INACOG Part-3. This exam is administered by the Indonesian College of Obstetrics and Gynecology and is the final stage of national certification for prospective OBGYN specialists.
The two PPDS participants who successfully completed the entire exam series are Dr. Truly Graceva and Dr. Wenny Rahayu. This graduation marks the completion of the national competency assessment process, following their previous success in INACOG Parts 1 and 2.
UKN INACOG Part-3 is a comprehensive evaluation that tests clinical knowledge, technical skills, medical decision-making, and professional integrity according to national standards. This success reflects the participants’ mastery of knowledge, practical readiness, and perseverance in undergoing specialist education, which demands high dedication.
The instructors of the PPDS OBGYN FKIK ULM expressed their appreciation for this achievement. According to them, this graduation demonstrates the participants’ commitment to developing their expertise in obstetrics and gynecology, as well as the result of a structured and continuous academic and clinical learning process.
As a national standardized exam, the UKN INACOG aims to ensure the quality and consistency of OBGYN specialist graduates throughout Indonesia. This standardization is crucial to ensure safe, high-quality maternal and child health services that align with advances in medical science.
For Lambung Mangkurat University, this achievement underscores the institution’s commitment to supporting the development of the interests and expertise of professional education students, particularly in the health sector. The success of these two PPDS OBGYN FKIK ULM participants is expected to inspire other students to continue improving their academic competencies and clinical skills, and contribute significantly to improving the quality of public health services.
