Abstract To keep pace with the advancements of technology, training models must also adapt, prioritizing safety, efficiency, and accessibility. Simulation-based training has emerged as a powerful tool to address these demands, offering structured, safe environments where junior cleft providers can build procedural confidence and sharpen their technical skills. The Comprehensive Cleft Care Workshop was established to provide sustainable, targeted solutions to challenges faced by cleft providers in their local contexts, by focusing on capacity building. As evidenced by measurable improvements in procedural confidence, long-term satisfaction, and clinical impact, this model represents a scalable and sustainable solution to global cleft care challenges.
