Abstract

This study examines the comprehensive competence of graduates from a professional course program in oral and maxillofacial surgery, with a focus on aligning their skills with employer expectations. The research aims to evaluate graduates’ ability to meet market demands, identify gaps in training programs, and propose strategies for improvement. The study addresses a critical global concern regarding the professional skills of oral and maxillofacial surgeons, emphasizing the need to enhance their clinical expertise, knowledge base, attitudes, and capacity for independent professional development. The analysis of current training programs highlights the necessity of aligning educational outcomes with the evolving needs of the healthcare industry. In the context of modern labor market demands, employers prioritize highly qualified surgeons, underscoring the importance of continuous improvement in professional education and training methodologies.
