Darish simultaneous translation was done during all training sessions. At the end of each course, reviews from participants were discussed. Discussion and conclusion: The experience gained from the course and direction of the participants revealed that it needs to be repeated every six months.

In this way, the course was planned to get integrated into the Afghan health system. Post-graduate courses are important components of modern health care systems. In many developed countries, these kind of courses have become compulsory and are performed regularly. However, standardized and regularly performed courses in developing countries are currently not the norm and should be supported.
