12,000 Students Begin 2024 Uganda Allied Health Exams Across 223 Centers

A total of 12,000 students have commenced their 2024 Uganda Allied Health Examination Board exams across the country.

Joseph Agondua, Executive Director of the Uganda Allied Health Examination Board (UAHEB), stated that the exams, which began on Tuesday, June 4, 2024, are being conducted at 223 centers within 72 registered training institutions.

He mentioned that the exams are scheduled to run for three consecutive weeks, featuring 30 accredited programs, with 280 students taking their final year exams.

According to him, the examinations include candidates enrolled in a special amnesty program. “The amnesty program was established to provide an opportunity for individuals who were unable to complete their courses previously,” said Agondua.

Agondua also cautioned both students and other stakeholders to strictly uphold the board’s core values during the examinations. “Negligence on your part can have a significant impact on everyone involved,” he warned.

The Uganda Allied Health Examinations Board was established by the BTVET Act of 2008, and it is mandated to streamline, regulate, and coordinate examinations and awards in the allied health profession throughout Uganda.
