Background
Singapore Health Services (SingHealth) has a strong tradition in healthcare education. From Singapore’s first medical school and nursing school to the introduction of allied health professions, and now home to the Duke-NUS Graduate Medical School, healthcare education finds its roots here at our grounds.
It is the vision of SingHealth’s leadership to establish an Academy that meets the diverse needs of a modern healthcare system and encourages lifelong learning. The existence of such an Academy is powerful testament to SingHealth’s commitment in education for healthcare professionals, with the ultimate purpose of improving patient care.
About Us
SingHealth Academy is an education collaboration of SingHealth's healthcare institutions and specialised education centres - the official representative in educational activities for SingHealth. Through collaborative efforts, the Academy galvanises resources, expertise and infrastructure to support SingHealth’s pursuit of academic medicine. The focus is on three key areas: supporting the development of healthcare education curricula activities, building up healthcare education intellectual capital and establishing a strong faculty base.
This is achieved through a comprehensive range of educational activities including seminars, conferences, simulation workshops and fellowship programmes. Other core services such as eLearning and publications are also provided by the Academy to further enhance lifelong learning and professional development.
Through a combination of academic and clinical experiences, healthcare professionals are empowered with the training and resources needed to advance clinical knowledge and expertise. SingHealth Academy aims to nurture its talents into outstanding healthcare leaders of tomorrow.
