If you asked both healthcare staff and medical institutions to identify the major challenges they are facing daily, access to information and various types of knowledge would be among the top answers. Upskilling is the process of teaching, coaching, and enhancing current skills, and abilities, to effectively expand the capabilities of existing healthcare staff, and sharing of medical knowledge plays a pivotal part in that process.

The importance of knowledge sharing.

Healthcare managers and doctors plays an important role in conveying the benefits of knowledge sharing by taking a proactive approach. For example, they can demonstrate previous medical case studies where the open exchange of ideas and findings proved to be the difference between life and death. They can also include the findings in their employee e-learning and make sure to always communicate and ask their teams to voice their opinion on matters or how nurses or healthcare staff can operate optimally on a day to day basis within their healthcare environment. This can all be communicated through via e-learning.

 

The right tools.

Learning management systems such as ART are also widely adopted by businesses thanks to their ability to facilitate access to training materials through dedicated learning spaces. The wave of new technologies such as online learning took learning in the workplace to new heights by combining explicit and tacit knowledge. Virtual worlds that represent an exact replica of real -life situations help employees to interact with their surroundings and become used to a specific layout. Additionally, these new techniques, such as e-Learning courses and webinars, focus heavily on building experiences through storytelling and complex branching scenarios.

 

Earn money by sharing your knowledge.

Online education is a booming market, and you can earn money by selling your medical content online. You may be wondering: will anyone want to pay for what I know?

First ask yourself: how often do patients or staff ask you for this information? If you’ve ever given a talk on a healthcare subject, pay attention to the interest levels of the audience. Did you receive a lot of questions from the audience? Had you answered those questions before in other contexts?

There is a lot to be said for niche subjects, but it’s also true that if other people are offering courses in a subject area, it’s a sign of high demand. Test the waters and get started for FREE by building and selling your healthcare course on ART. See how people respond, and you may just discover you have a real money maker on your hands.

Fostering a learning culture within a healthcare organisation can have a wide range of both immediate and long-term benefits. Start sharing your knowledge today.
