The Health Care and Management (HCM) programme looks back on more than a quarter of a century of educating international health professionals. On 27 June 2019, eighteen students from the 26th graduating class of the HCM course celebrated their achievement at Basel City Hall, joining hundreds of alumni across the world who have launched careers in international health. Over the past 14 weeks, HCM participants have acquired a range of skills and knowledge to work as a member of a health management team, particularly in lowand middle-income settings. Lecturers from different countries fostered an interactive training environment that included group work, laboratory practice and field visits. These practical skills facilitate career advancement as well as personal and professional development. HCM students profited not only from the experience of the lecturers but also from the diversity of their fellow students. The graduates from 13 different countries on four different continents shared their experience and knowledge in the classroom and on field trips.
