The institute organizes benchmark capacity building training courses to meet the  ongoing needs of the health workforce and staying relevant within the dynamic health infrastructure. In the past years, NIHFW has imparted various training programs to build and  harness the capacity of the health professionals to create a workforce of knowledgeable skilled human resources for effective health care delivery. Some of the significant capacity  building programs conducted by NIHFW include Capacity Building in Public Health Emergency Management, Capacity Building of District Level Officers/ Staff under National  Tobacco Control Programme (NTCP), Building Administrative and Financial Skills for AYUSH Officials, Building Leadership and Management skills of Nursing and Midwifery  professionals and the In- Charges of Autonomous Bodies / Subordinate Offices of AYUSH Ministry.
