Healthcare is evolving at an unprecedented pace, as data, artificial intelligence, and digital technologies fundamentally reshape the delivery of care. These innovations are driving significant impact, including enhanced diagnostics, more precise treatment strategies, reduced clinical errors, and expanded patient accessibility.

Digital Health is no longer a "specialty"—it’s a core competency.

The question is:

ARE WE, HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS, EVOLVING FAST ENOUGH TO ADAPT TO TECHNOLOGY?

Current medical and healthcare education is extensively packed with clinical essentials, yet it frequently overlooks the digital health competencies that are now vital for 21st-century practice.

Supported by the 2025 AI in Medicine Grant, we have developed three online courses designed to equip healthcare professionals with expertise in artificial intelligence, clinical informatics, and mobile health.

These three modules are stackable micro-credentials within the upcoming Master of Digital Health programme at the Universiti Malaya (UM), providing healthcare professionals with a seamless pathway toward a full-fledged postgraduate qualification.
