Overview of DHA Training in Dubai

Healthcare professionals in Dubai require a DHA (Dubai Health Authority) license to pursue their careers in the UAE. The DHA license is issued by Dubai's Health Regulation Department (HRD). Dubai's Health Authority aims to offer an accessible, effective, and integrated healthcare system, safeguard public health, and enhance the quality of life within the Emirate. To advance in the Dubai healthcare sector, passing the DHA exam with a minimum of 60% is essential. This computer-based test (CBT) assesses your knowledge and skills to ensure compliance with UAE practice standards.

Whether you're a General Practitioner, Nurse, Pharmacist, or Dentist from any region, obtaining a DHA license is mandatory for practising in Dubai. How do you plan to prepare for the DHA exam?
