University of Sydney will be hosting an event this week that will ask what these changes might look like, what skills health professionals will need and what role universities and governments can play in responding to this rapidly changing employment landscape in the health sector.

How will universities be gearing up to New technologies and tests, an ageing population, greater community expectations around healthcare — including those based on the easy availability of medical information and personal health records? These are just some of the factors that will make the health workforce of 2025 look very different to the health workforce of today.

Mark Cormack, the Chief Executive of Health Workforce Australia, will give the keynote address. Health Workforce Australia was established by the Commonwealth Government to provide a coordinated, national approach to health workforce planning. Read the full media release and access useful links.
