The E&PS team will update the group on the education activities that have been the main focus since our last meeting, and give you an overview of the course activity.

We will give you an update on the SNOMED CT Authoring courses.

Since our last meeting, we have started the development of the new version of the SNOMED CT Foundation course.
At this meeting, we will present the plans for this new course, and invite you to provide feedback on the material

.

• Agreement that the new course and format looks better than the current course.
  Volunteers were identified for the review of Module A - a message will be sent out at the end of November.
• Discussion about students who have taken the existing foundation and what level of access they will have to the new course. For sure they can take the new course, but will they be enrolled as an alumni? (TBD)
• Question about if the Spanish version and any other translated versions will be translated in the new style of course. It was advised that this is not planned at present and so the Foundation Course will remain the same for the Spanish version.
• Comment about the importance of having access to a Glossary and if this could be linked in the beginning of the course as it would be useful to learners to know where this is at the start.

We will present our ideas and plans for the future run of the SNOMED CT Implementation Course.

There was a general agreement that the new structure looks appealing and more flexible. 

We will give you an update on the partnerships activities and discuss ways for you to engage in partnerships.

• Announcement about Finnish translation of Foundation Course
  • 30 completions so far
  • Question about access to Finnish translation
• Anne reminded everyone about the members source share and member education resources
• Mikko offer to share their material so we will need a Finnish section under member education resources

At this meeting we won't ask you to provide a summary of the current education activities in your country. However, we do invite you to share any significant experiences you have had in your country since our last meeting that others could learn from. Or, if you have specific questions related to SNOMED CT education and training you would like to be addressed at this meeting, please send an email to arh@snomed.org to notify about your questions and/or experiences.
