Why did you join GAME?
As Director of Digital Education I have responsibility to identify opportunities and oversee strategic planning for the digital, videobased education that is our focus. In partnership with patient advocacy organizations, medical specialty societies, and accredited providers, we design and develop education for patients/caregivers and healthcare professionals. What’s truly exciting and meaningful is the commitment of “the Q” – written in our mission – to deliver education that will improve diversity/equity in healthcare, meet patients and caregivers “where they are”, and enhance knowledge and competence among HCPs.
What do you want to accomplish as a committee member of the FIC?
Not long after the Budapest GAME meeting, over a cup of coffee at a local cafe and a conversation about the rapidly growing applications of AI and what the future might hold for CPD and learning (the point of singularity may have been part of the discussion!), Dale Kummerle suggested I consider being part of the FIC – Futurist and Innovation Committee. As a member of the FIC, I appreciate interacting with experts from 3 continents each week to look ahead – not too far into the future – and anticipate what the future might hold in terms of the learning needs and expectations of healthcare professionals (including those in training) across the globe.
What would you tell other professionals who are just joining the CPD profession and starting their careers?
The four C’s – curiosity, creativity, confidence, collaboration – can help you enjoy and advance in your professional career, and encourage engagement with your colleagues and leadership. Your efforts, questions, insights – your voice – all matter and can make a positive difference for your
professional career and personal life.
