The skills of the workforce are a core factor for the quality of healthcare systems. On top of the basic education, postgraduate training is an important factor for continuously maintaining as well as improving the workforce qualification level. Advanced training often provides certification of the acquired skills. This paper analyses the status quo of international certification programs in the sector of eHealth (EU, US, Global). It uses available literature and observations from international educational expert's workgroups. It identifies gaps regarding certifications in eHealth and suggests steps for solutions. Despite little attention to legal and financial eHealth related content in certification programs in the EU as well as a low degree of harmonization of international certifications in general, there are strong activities especially in the international scope towards personal certification programs in eHealth. Major changes are to be expected within the coming years.
劳动力技能是医疗保健系统质量的核心因素。除了基础教育之外，研究生培训是持续维持并提高劳动力资质水平的重要因素。进阶培训通常会对所学技能进行认证。本文分析了电子健康领域（欧盟、美国、全球）国际认证项目的现状。它利用了现有文献以及国际教育专家工作组的观察结果。它找出了电子健康认证方面的差距，并提出了解决措施。尽管欧盟的认证项目对与电子健康相关的法律和财务内容关注较少，且国际认证的总体协调程度较低，但特别是在国际范围内，针对电子健康个人认证项目的活动十分活跃。预计未来几年会发生重大变化。
