Interesting: Philips to collaborate for Saudi Arabia medical training
Posted by Adam Chee on June 26, 2008
This in my opnion, very impressive.
“Royal Philips Electronics and the Specialized Academy for Medical Training will work together to provide medical education and training programs for Saudi high school graduates and staff in hospitals and medical centers across Saudi Arabia.”
Starting in October, programs covering medical technology disciplines (e.g. x-ray, ultrasound) and healthcare IT will rolled out with each program consisting of a combination of e-learning modules and practical training. The program will be accredited by the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties.
*sigh* If only my day job is soley on promotion of Healthcare Informatics……
