There is a need to be able to define a Health Informatician by their graduate attributes. Futhermore global health informatics education that facilitates student mobility requires a common understanding of educational outcomes. An internationally agreed health informatics education framework will facilitate us to meet these needs. This chapter provides an overview of a considerable amount of work undertaken in a number of countries and by IMIA's health and medical informatics education working group. We need to make good use of these foundations as they clarify the various health informatics roles and functions together with their associated health informatics competency requirements. We are now in a good position to progress this work by developing a health informatics qualifications and educational framework. This is expected to assist educational providers with curriculum development.
有必要能够根据其毕业生属性来定义健康信息专家。此外,促进学生流动的全球健康信息学教育需要对教育成果有共同的理解。一个国际认可的健康信息学教育框架将有助于我们满足这些需求。本章概述了多个国家以及国际医学信息学协会(IMIA)的健康与医学信息学教育工作组所开展的大量工作。我们需要充分利用这些基础,因为它们阐明了各种健康信息学的角色和功能以及与之相关的健康信息学能力要求。我们现在处于有利位置,可以通过制定健康信息学资格和教育框架来推进这项工作。这有望帮助教育提供者进行课程开发。
