HOW Academy Programmes Now Carry CPD Certification Across Five Professional Bodies

Following an eighteen-month accreditation review process, all HOW Academy diploma and workshop programmes now carry CPD certification recognised by five professional bodies: the Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP), the Emirates Medical Association (EMA), the Arab Board of Health Specializations, the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM), and the International Society of Lifestyle Medicine (ISLM).

For clinicians, this means that hours completed through HOW Academy programmes can be logged directly against CPD requirements in multiple professional frameworks — reducing administrative overhead and strengthening the case for employer-supported attendance.

All current and forthcoming programme brochures will carry updated CPD credit information. Participants who have completed HOW Academy programmes in the past two years and wish to apply retroactively for CPD recognition should contact the academy office.
