On behalf of the planning committee, it is our pleasure to invite you to the “3rd SSMC Education Week,” which will be held on 14 to 17 October 2024 at Sheikh Shakhbout Medical City (SSMC).

The theme for this year’s event is “Empowering Education with AI: Shaping the Future of Education.” Each of SSMC’s five education centres – Graduate Medical Education, Medical Student Education, Nursing Education, Health Sciences Education, Workforce and Professional Development (Staff Development, Centre Continuous Medical Education, and Centre of Innovation and Medical Simulation) – will showcase a variety of innovative educational activities that emphasise the role of education in supporting and fostering sustainability, efficiency, and quality of the healthcare sector’s workforce. Our team will also present the collaborations between SSMC’s Education Division and healthcare institutions locally, regionally, and internationally to establish medical and clinical education programmes as part of our strategic goal to ensure the delivery of quality education.

We have designed a comprehensive four-day programme that includes seminars and booth activities featuring recent advancements in health education. This agenda reflects our efforts to enhance the medical education system and redesign training and educational programmes to meet the challenges of a rapidly evolving healthcare system.

We believe that your participation in the 3rd SSMC Education Week, whether in person or virtually, will be an enriching and memorable experience for you.
