Bachelor of Clinical Medicine and Community Health registered a pass rate of 94% after 46 of the 49 students who sat for the pre-registration exam passed.

The exam tests studentscâ¬â?c skills having sat an accredited programme. It sieves students to see whocâ¬â?cs competent and whocâ¬â?cs not.

The course, which is in the new curriculum created by National Council for Higher Education (NCHE) in April last year, was adopted by Kampala International University, borrowing a leaf from other universities in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The 46 students who passed the course were given a certificate of competence to do a six-month supervised placement at a regional referral hospital, after which they can be given a licence to practice.

Graduates from this course are first liners in the health care system and have more skills than the advent Clinical Officer.

A graduate Clinical Officer (C.O) can work in the community, like at district hospitals through Health Center IVcâ¬â?cs and IIIcâ¬â?cs.

The three who did not pass the paper will reapply and re-do the exam in July this year.
