· Prepare health care providers by introducing them to concepts and local experiences in Informatics.
· Acquire knowledge to remain current with new trends, terminology, studies, data and breaking news.
· Cooperate with a network of colleagues establishing connections and leaders that will provide assistance and advice for business issues, as well as for best-practice and knowledge sharing.
