Olympus is delighted to announce the launch of its brand new professional education website, www.olympusprofed.com, taking online clinical and product learning to another level.
In line with the company’s diverse product portfolio, the online learning platform features a broad range of educational resources designed to support the advancement of training during treatment, surgical and examination settings and is relevant at all stages of practice.
As technology advances, the interest in medical education and training remains high and Olympus has invested a significant sum in developing this tool to help healthcare professionals expand their knowledge, advance their skillsets and improve patient outcomes.
Once registered, users will have access to hundreds of online tutorials, videos, e-learnings and training manuals free of charge, which are all peer reviewed. Accessible from all devices, the website offers the possibility for training whatever hour of day or night; providing a one-stop-shop for guidance on the safe and effective use of Olympus technologies and products.
Content is divided into six main sections: ENT & Head and Neck, Gastroenterology, General Surgery, Gynaecology, Pulmonology and Urology and a search bar enables users to look up resources by keyword. Through regular observation, the Professional Education department will constantly update and optimise the content on offer.
Simon Ford, Professional Education Manager for Olympus in the UK and Ireland, said ‘We are really excited to launch the new professional education website. It’s been several years in the planning and it is full of very valuable content supporting all business areas. The wonderful thing about Olympus is that we cover so many medical and surgical disciplines, so we truly are in a unique position to reach a large number of healthcare professionals and help improve patient outcomes, making their lives healthier; something deep at the heart of our philosophy.’
Following the launch, plans are already in the pipeline to share content from key customers and provide both pre and post-course materials.
With this international platform, Olympus not only increases its online presence but also enters the online education market by integrating the website into existing course formats and developing new formats around the website’s capabilities.
