Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is difficult to treat and there exists a dearth of information about this infectious disease. The World Health Organization (WHO) developed the Stop TB Strategy and guidelines on how to prevent, control and treat MDR-TB by using available data worldwide.

Guidelines, however, are theoretical knowledge that is not easily transferrable into actual practice. The WMA therefore volunteered to produce a learning programme for the MDR-TB Guidelines. The course was updated together with the new WHO MDR-TB strategy in 2010.

This MDR-TB course exists as a free self-learning online tool in English and Mandarin Chinese allowing physicians worldwide to learn and test their knowledge about MDR-TB.  It is accredited by the South African Medical Association and the Norwegian Medical Association and therefore will be recognised in whole Europe.

To increase the access to MDR-TB training globally a PDF version of the course will be translated into French, Spanish, Mandarin Chinese and Azeri soon.
