Distance Learning and E-Learning at I-TECH

I-TECH's distance learning and e-learning projects provide opportunities for health care professionals in resource-limited settings to gain knowledge and skills while minimizing their need to leave the workplace.

I-TECH distance learning projects typically have four goals:

1. Increase the capacity of health care workers in resource-limited settings to deliver high quality care and treatment while allowing them to remain in their workplaces to provide services at their sites.
2. Build the capacity of ministries of health and governmental institutions to use learning technologies and design blended learning, e-learning, and distance learning programs for health care workforce development.
3. Provide technical assistance in effectively using e-learning, blended learning, and distance learning for health care workforce development.
4. Support the University of Washington's Department of Global Health in implementing e-learning activities in resource-limited settings.

I-TECH has technical expertise in implementing distance learning and e-learning programs, with an emphasis on solutions suitable for settings with limited technology and low bandwidth.
