My Health Hub is the new name for the education programme brought to you by Mobile Health Group. With an increasing number of health professionals from all over New Zealand tuning into our regular webinars and education sessions, the new website has been developed to provide a personalised learning experience with increased user capability, providing users with control of their continuing professional development. My Health Hub is not just an education platform but an enjoyable and interactive learning experience that will accelerate your learning journey.

The education programme was established in 2002 and is funded by the Ministry of Health to address the need for continuing professional development for health professionals living and working in rural New Zealand.

The team behind My Health Hub is the same team from Mobile Health Group – you are so lucky!

My Health Hub has been specifically designed for rural nurses, GPs and other health providers who work in primary care, secondary care, residential care and community settings. There is a growing number of healthcare professionals in urban areas who are also taking advantage of this service.

My Health Hub provides a platform where all health professionals can access quality education whether it be webinars delivered by qualified and experienced presenters, self-directed short courses or study days/sessions, where health organisations deliver tailored learning sessions on any topic specifically for a single town, region or organisation.

Benefits include:
• Access to training on a wide range of topics
• Listen to the most knowledgeable experts available
• Reduce the cost and inconvenience of travel
• Enable your whole team to be involved
• Receive education in a timely manner, this is especially good following incidents or specific situations

Study sessions are normally one hour and focussed on one organisation, region and may cover one or more topics.

Study days can be anywhere between two to six hours or more and may cover several different topics throughout the day. These are generally live events and are not recorded.

Study days/sessions are promoted through your local education co-ordinator, and you may be required to register to receive a video link if you are unable to attend in-person.
