[Analysis of results of certification of bacteriologists in Georgia and the ways of its optimization]
Abstract:
Analysis of the certification of bacteriologists in Georgia (234 specialists) has shown that 164 specialists (90-100%) passed the certificate examination with high and excellent scores. It indicates to the importance of expansion of test-questionnaires as well as their complication by 8.8%-9.4%. Specialists with low, average and good progress in studies showed almost the same scores (75-80%). All together it makes 26% of those who did not pass the examination. According to subjects, most specialists make mistakes in general microbiology, especially in morphology and physiology of microbes, practical skills, there are a lot of mistakes in special microbiology, especially in diagnostics of infections caused by anaerobes and hemofil. Most specialists poorly managed questions in immunology, clinical microbiology and quality of laboratory researchers. Our data should be important for the further adaptation and modernization of certificate test-questionnaires.
