The challenge of ensuring a consistent level of knowledge among healthcare informatics professionals is well established. It ties into complex issues about professionalisation, and accreditation, and delivering learning and development in the always-stretched environment of the NHS.
For the past eight years, the North West Informatics Skills Development (ISD) Network has provided a means of bolstering the skills of informatics professionals in this region.
In this exclusive Digital Health Best Practice Webinar, key leaders will explain more about how the network has developed, the benefits it has created, and offer advice to others seeking to support the professional development of informatics professionals.
They will discuss how the network has enabled cost effective learning and development opportunities for informatics staff; bolstered collaboration between local teams; and how its workforce accreditation scheme provides a valuable assessment of a workforce’s skill level.

- How it has developed since its foundation in 2011
