Abstract
This paper focused on the Educational Planning (recruitment, training and retention) strategies used by Cuba to produce best medical doctors in the world despite the fact she is a developing and poor nation. It traces the historical aspect of both Cuba and Cameroon and proceeds with causal comparative analysis taking cognizance of the contextual challenges. (socio-cultural, political and economic).The strategies used by Cuban Educational Administrators in reorganising such a model system of education revealed the gaps which Cameroon needs to draw inferences from. This paper also delves into reasons why Cameroon, another third world country cannot be matched with Cuba despite an abundance of resources. The educational systems of both countries are analysed and technical strategies sought. The study draws lessons from Cuba's educational system and strategies employed to improve on her training of medical practitioners. It poses the question: what has Cuba used with less than what miracle has used to produce quality medical personnel with less resource? Why can Cameroon not use her abundant natural resources and educational system to produce same number of quality and quantity of medical of medical doctors? Past and current documents have been consulted and they have been properly scrutinized to come out with the reasons why Cuba offers high quality manpower (medical personnel) the best health care services and strategies employed to produce this as well as the reasons why Cameroon cannot even produce a self-sufficient number of medical personnel though a third world country like Cuba. The study also recommends some educational strategies that Cameroon can adopt to improve on quality and quantity of medical practitioners in the country. Michael N.
