However, when there was an opinion from the Ministry of Health about putting this diploma and training officially into law, the Ministry of Education and Training commented as follows: The Law on Higher Education does not interfere with the management and training of medical specialties. The law only stipulates general principles for training at university, masters, and doctoral levels in branches and fields within the scope of state management assigned by the Ministry of Education and Training. Specialist training programs are training in post-graduate in-depth professional competencies and skills under the management of the Ministry of Health. This includes professional content, competency standards, clinical practice conditions, and training programs. Diplomas in the national system for masters and doctorates are still issued by the Ministry of Education and Training. As for training in fields such as first-specialist, second-specialist, and third-specialist doctors, the training has been organized by the Ministry of Health from the past until now.

The Minister affirmed: The Ministry of Education and Training does not manage this content and has never had a policy of bringing universities under the Ministry of Health to the Ministry of Education and Training.

The Minister emphasized the need to clearly distinguish State management of education from professional management.
