Abstract

Despite the growing investment in information systems for training in healthcare establishments (HCEs), there is a lack of a holistic understanding of the role of information systems in different aspects of medical training. In this paper, we attempt to arrive at a framework that summarizes different kinds of training required in HCEs and the role of information systems in each of these types. We contribute to research by systematically summarizing the current role of information systems in medical training and discussing future trends. We contribute to practice by providing a technique to assess and plan training activities in HCEs.
