IHNA’s role as a pathway towards university-level education within the healthcare industry. By empowering healthcare leaders through innovative education and training.

It emphasizes the goal of fostering innovative mindsets, equipping students with skills and knowledge to become industry leaders, and driving positive change.

IHNA strives to achieve this by:

  • Assessments similar to first year of University education
  • Provide guidance to students regarding possible articulation pathways for each course in scope with multiple degree programs and universities offering the courses.
  • Provide gap training to meet university course requirements for transferring to Bachelor level courses in mapping the curriculum offered by universities
  • Inviting university lecturers to provide guest lecture opportunity with IHNA diploma level courses.
Philosophy

Jobs are the primary source of wealth that sustains individuals and families; the building blocks of society. Creating a supportive organisation entails an emphasis on staff training and development, family support, career growth and the provision of lifelong opportunities for career progression through organisational growth.

The provision of quality educational outcomes is also fundamental to supporting the personal and career development of students and graduates. The world is increasingly globalised and interconnected; thus, education must transcend borders and address changes in students’ needs in response to global trends as well as local developments. Linking and partnering with educational institutions and organisations that share HCI’s global aspirations and are aligned with this philosophy is key to making that mission a reality.
