Google has announced the Google AI for Healthcare Professionals Certificate, a self-paced training program designed to teach healthcare professionals practical and responsible uses of artificial intelligence in their daily work.

According to Google, the program focuses on non-clinical administrative tasks and is designed to be completed in less than five hours. The company says the curriculum keeps patient safety and privacy central and offers up to 5.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.

The certificate consists of four courses. Topics include identifying useful applications for AI, evaluating AI-generated outputs, communicating complex medical concepts in patient-friendly formats, organizing administrative work such as scheduling and email review, and using natural-language tools without coding. The program also covers reviewing clinical studies, organizing presentations, and preparing for exams and certifications.

Google says the curriculum was developed by clinicians at the company with backgrounds in several medical and public health fields. It adds that the material was reviewed by clinical and medical education professionals and draws on draft versions of the Association of American Medical Colleges’ Artificial Intelligence Competencies Across the Learning Curriculum.

The company says NYU Grossman School of Medicine, the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Touro University, and Purdue University School of Nursing are offering the curriculum to groups including faculty, residents, students, or healthcare professionals. Registration is available through Google’s healthcare training website.
