Continuing professional development (CPD) of Ukrainian doctors-stomatologists (dentists) and maxillofacial surgeons is a continuous process of learning and improving the professional competencies of stomatologists and maxillofacial surgeons, which enables them to maintain or increase the level of professional activity in accordance with the needs of the health care sector. CPD can be both voluntary and mandatory, depending on the dental legislation of each European country. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the key legislation aspects of CPD related with criteria for awarding CPD points to the Ukrainian doctors of all eight stomatological specialties. The number of required CPD points and criteria for awarding CPD points are regulated by (1) Order of the Ministry of Healthcare of Ukraine of February 22, 2019, No. 446 “Some Issues of CPD of Doctors” and by (2) the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine of July 14, 2021, No. 725 “On Approval of the Regulation on the System of CPD of Healthcare Workers”. In 2024, at least 100 CPD points obtained in 2020, 2021 and at least 50 CPD points obtained in 2022, 2023 must be submitted by stomatologist for certification. In 2025 and subsequent years, at least 50 CPD points for each previous year must be submitted for certification. All 10 types of professional activities from the criteria for awarding CPD points are described. CPD points are awarded for obtaining formal, informal (type 1) and informal (type 2) education in the field of healthcare. The biggest number of points (namely, 100 CPD points) can be awarded to a stomatologist for obtaining educational and scientific levels of higher education in the field of knowledge “Health Care” (Doctor of Philosophy and Doctor of Science). The smallest number of points, namely three CPD points, can be obtained for a professional medical internship in Ukraine outside the institution where the employee works. Modern Ukrainian legislation provides ample opportunities for doctors-stomatologists and maxillofacial surgeons for their CPD and certification. The criteria for awarding CPD points from Order No. 446 contain a complete list of educational opportunities in Ukraine and in other countries. This article has the potential to become a guide to Ukrainian CPD legislation both for dental specialists from other countries and Ukraine.
