NEW DELHI: Indira Vitro Fertilisation has been accredited in the Fellowship of the National Board (FNB)- reproductive medicine course by the National Board of Examinations (NBE) of India.

The company intends to train 100 FNB candidates over the next five years, meeting the country's significant demand for qualified fertility specialists.

Course
During the two-year fellowship, selected applicants will go through a course divided into theoretical, clinical, practical, and symposium formats that will cover knowledge, skills, behavior, the delivery of rehabilitative care, and research and training methodologies.
Nitiz Murdia, managing director, and co-founder of Indira IVF, speaking on the accreditation, said, "We are honoured to receive accreditation from the National Board of Examinations to train India’s next generation of specialists in Reproductive Medicine. In addition to providing technologically-backed treatment to patients, Indira IVF hospitals are also equipped to facilitate research and training with its state-of-the-art infrastructure.”
“As per recent estimates, there are currently 1,950 gynecologists who perform IVF treatment in the country however, there will be a requirement of 1.5-2x of the current availability by 2028. The silver lining is that there are over 35,000 gynaecologists in India who can be trained to become specialists to meet the increasing demand of IVF treatment in the country,” Murdia added.
Indira Fertility Academy
Indira IVF's academic wing, Indira Fertility Academy (IFA), has trained over 150 andrology technicians, 200 embryologists, and 350 fertility experts. It aims to add between 300 to 350 fertility experts over the next five years to fill the gap caused by the rise in demand for assisted reproductive technology treatments.
