What Colegio Regional de Obstetras III Lima - Callao does

The Colegio Regional de Obstetras III Lima - Callao is a non-profit professional regulatory body that governs obstetric practice across Peru's Lima and Callao regions, operating as a constituent regional college of the national Colegio de Obstetras del Perú (established July 15, 1975 by Decreto Ley N° 21210). Its legally mandated functions include issuing professional habilitation certificates, registering specialties, master's degrees, and doctorates, and maintaining a public directory of licensed obstetras. Services are delivered through an in-person service counter at its Mariscal Sucre 1351 headquarters in Pueblo Libre, a virtual mesa de partes (tramite.crolimacallao.org.pe) for online document submission, an online competency verification system, and a publicly searchable directory of certified professionals (1,263 listed 2022–2025). Continuing education is delivered via a dedicated virtual learning platform (plataformadecapacitacion.crolimacallao.org.pe) hosting three weekly programs — Lunes de Gestión Obstétrica, Martes de Actualización, and Jueves de Obstetras Investigadores — alongside specialized courses and the Diplomado Internacional Formación de Obstetras Holísticas.

The College operates a member-funded revenue model combining one-time fees (initial registration S/. 1,604 combining COP and CRO charges, specialty S/. 466, master's S/. 366, doctorate S/. 366, recarnetización S/. 81, card replacement S/. 61) with recurring monthly dues of S/. 20 per member set by Resolution N° 006-2024-CN-COP, of which 10% is remitted to the national Directing Council. Its customer base comprises approximately 1,263 certified regional obstetras (2022–2025), with 217 holding recognized specialties, 74 holding master's degrees, and 4 holding doctoral degrees. The College maintains formal alliances with universities (Universidad Norbert Wiener, UNIR, FUNIBER) and preferential-benefit partners (Medifarma, Oncosalud AUNA, Laboratorio Pulso, IOL, Cuidate, Municipalidad de Lurín) to extend value to members. Governance is exercised through an elected Consejo Directivo Regional serving three-year terms; the current 2025–2028 council is led by Decana Jenny Elenisse Zavaleta Luján, with a permanent operational staff of 8 employees.

Comparable as a regulatory/credentialing infrastructure peer, particularly for online verification and cross-jurisdiction reciprocity functionality.

• Colegio de Obstetras del Perú (COP): National-level professional college for obstetricians in Peru, of which CRO III Lima-Callao is a regional constituent.

Relevant as emerging competitors and partners in the same specialty training and certification market the College serves.

Regional players

Direct structural analog to the Colegio de Obstetras del Perú / CRO regional model.
