Our Story

In 2020, California Greens founded CGGA to close a persistent gap: gynecologists wanted specialist training that was rigorous, internationally recognised and within reach.

Six years on, that conviction has grown into a portfolio of accredited diplomas and courses that has reached more than 500 doctors, each program built to raise the standard of women’s health care

  • Our mission Accessible, accredited, practice-changing education for every gynecologist.
