HL7 E-Learning

Learning by Doing

The HL7 e-Learning Course is fundamentally different with regard to an exposition course. It is a web-based workshop, a set of guided exercises that teachs by practice and example, not by exposition.

At the end of the course, participants should:

  • Know how to confront a project involving interoperability among disjointed healthcare information systems.
  • Know how to read the most widely used HL7 standards.
  • Understand the need for controlled vocabularies, master files, and entity registries.
  • Read and Write V2.X messages.
  • Read and Write V3 messages.
  • Read and Write CDA R2 documents.
  • Know when to use each artifact (messages, documents).
