Hosted by INHWE and European University Cyprus, this event brought together partners from six EU member states—Cyprus, Greece, Italy, Hungary, Lithuania, and Romania—to celebrate our achievements and plan the future steps to revolutionize healthcare training.

Looking Ahead: Online 'Train the Trainer' Workshop
Building on the momentum from the interim meeting, we transitioned to an online ‘Train the Trainer’ workshop. Here, we delved deeper into the potential of VR technology and tested the specifics of implementing online inter-professional training through complex exercises. This session highlighted the importance of thorough preparation and adaptation for online environments. The lessons learned will be pivotal as we move forward.
The H-PASS initiative is poised to transform the way healthcare professionals learn, equipping them with the skills needed to thrive in a digital age. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to innovate and collaborate on this transformative journey.
