About Latin America Grants

Latin America Grants are provided to eligible health professions schools, ministries, and other organizations in Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean, or South America.

Through a regional health professions school consortia, the program promotes collaboration and provides grants to institutions focused on making a broad and sustainable impact on the quality of student assessment and program evaluation.

At the current time, NBME has not yet opened a call for the next cycle of Latin America Grants. More details will follow.
