“Sample Size Calculation is an important component when conducting research; the topic is very useful for researchers without statistical backgrounds. The trainer’s teaching was relevant and exciting, and is especially useful for the conducting of clinical trials. I have learnt a lot and am now more confident in calculating sample sizes and critiquing clinical trials papers. Thanks, SingHealth Academy, for organising this workshop.”

They were patient and accommodating, while being able to guide us in the publishing process. From conceptualisation to printing and publicity, they were there every step of the way. They genuinely shared in our dream of having the inaugural Medical Social Worker book and ensured it was achieved in the best quality possible."

“The pilot project on online language skills training – specifically, medical Mandarin – on SingHealth Academy’s Blackboard platform has gone very well. Our non-mandarin-speaking medical students tested the system and loved it! About 50% of our class comprises international medical students who need language skills to function well in their clinical training, so we see this as a very important resource.”
