Giving Health Sciences Institutions a shot in the arm
The healthcare industry across the world is in need of qualified professionals across all areas of specialization including support staff, technicians and other personnel.
Only half of all countries have a health workforce qualified to deliver quality healthcare services. While there are several factors contributing to the problem, the most important of these stems at a fundamental level – poorly designed education programs that rely upon archaic syllabus and teaching methodologies. While, like everything else, healthcare education has been impacted by the pandemic, education institutions can take advantage of an online EdTech platform that is designed to improve learning outcomes during and even post pandemic.
With a robust e-learning platform like Camu, health sciences institutions across different specialisation areas and verticals can deliver advanced learning solutions, which can impact the scale and quality of education to provide a qualified global workforce.
Camu provides a learner-focused approach
to increase engagement
Interactive Content
The lockdown has forced all medical students to return home compelling medical colleges and other health universities to switch to online platforms of education. So, while students leave behind routine didactic lecture classes, practical’s, tutorials, seminars, and ward engaging content that is updated constantly.
Camu makes it easier to continuously add new content that is relevant and in-line with changing requirements.
Real-life experience
Education in healthcare should ideally be practical, visual and specialised. Healthcare educators worry about the lack of “real learning” as the profession was never designed to be taught fully online.
Through Camu Virtual Classroom, teaching faculty can leverage multimedia content such as videos, animations and graphics to create situations that are closest to real life situations to enhance clinical skills. These transform learning into an engaging experience especially for live illustrative cases. Audio-visual driven learning ensures highest impact in effectiveness of learning and improving teacher productivity. Camu can cover the whole gamut of the curriculum making it a compelling option for health sciences institutions.
Multiple use of content
While institutes have opted for online learning platforms during the pandemic, multiple issues need to be addressed before adopting these measures for long term.

Accessibility of tech for students at their place of residence
Training for medical educators for migration to online education

Long term solution
The pandemic has presented EdTech an opportunity to transform the ecosystem of learning in healthcare institutions by ensuring greater acceptance of technology. Like any other science, medical education is also a continuous process and a student has to complete each milestone in the pre-determined order. At the same time, there is uncertainty revolving around the tenure of the pandemic, therefore the need for trained healthcare workers cannot be ignored. As the country ramps up the healthcare facilities to battle the Covid-19 pandemic, lack of trained healthcare workers will adversely affect the process. Camu is the solution that can bridge the gap.
