Popis: | Rapid changes in the health sector and the consequent demand for Health Information Managers (HIMs) who have the required competencies to practice in the profession means that the Education Committee of the Health Information Management Association of Australia (HIMAA) and HIMAA more broadly have to be flexible and respond to this changing landscape. This issue is compounded by major changes currently occurring within the tertiary education sector, including restructuring of university courses, which has impacted on university staff and created huge upheaval for these staff, including those delivering programs in health information management. The challenge for both the HIMAA Education Committee and for HIMAA as a professional organisation is to tackle all of these issues on the many levels involved in order to ensure the continuing strength of the Australian health information management profession, both now and into the future. |
