UIAA wishes to state that the Indian Mountain Medicine Association is not currently an accredited body to conduct courses or award certificates under the UIAA/ISMM/ICAR Diploma in Mountain Medicine syllabus.
It was brought to the attention of UIAA that the Indian Association of Mountain Medicine was advertising itself as an accrediting body for the UIAA/ISMM/ICAR Diploma in Mountain Medicine. The UIAA has also received several requests from individuals concerned about the feasibility of the process.
Despite repeated requests from the UIAA, the Indian Mountaineering Association has neither removed this reference nor sought certification through official channels. The UIAA will now review the matter with the relevant authorities in India.
A full list of accredited courses can be found here.
