About the Course
This course aims to enhance the competence level of the use of digital tools across the continuum of care. One major challenge is that these professionals are in full-time jobs. They have no possibility of upskilling in terms of digital literacy. Hence the one-year, self-paced course will allow them to learn. That too from the experience of the global leaders on the latest digital advancement in healthcare.
Through the CDHP course, Digital Health Academy wants to bridge the gap between the healthcare professional & application- oriented Digital Health. Segregated into three levels: Basic, Advanced, and Professional, the course will cover the theoretical and practical implementation of digital health technologies.
Apart from getting access to many offerings from the digital health ecosystem, at Digital Health Academy, the students will be entitled to join the global alumni of health professionals and become a part of the impact-full Digital Health Professionals network across the globe.
