Philips, Healthworks to offer cardiovascular education programs

Healthworks and Royal Philips Electronics are collaborating to provide clinical specialists with new education programs and training resources for several clinical subject areas, including peripheral angiography, interventional radiology, electrophysiology and invasive cardiology. 

The programs—available online and through live, instructor led seminars—are designed for individual cardiovascular and imaging technologists, as well as nursing professionals, working in healthcare provider organizations such as hospitals, imaging centers and physician group practices. 

Philips and the Douglassville, Pa.-based Healthworks said its collaboration will include the co-marketing of a series of web-based seminars, the creation and instructor-led delivery of clinical content, and the combining of Healthworks’ library of multimedia content with Philips’ clinical offerings. The programs will be offered at Philips training campuses and delivered on the Philips Learning Center, directly addressing the market insights identified during in-depth interviews with customers across clinical specialties and global markets, according to the companies.
