Welcome by Co-Directors

Synonym(s):

At the SingHealth Duke-NUS Academic Medical Centre (AMC), we believe that strong health professions education is inseparable from the health of the patients and populations we serve. Guided by this belief, our work at AMEI is largely motivated by developing people, enhancing learning and demonstrating impact.

Advancing Education, Enhancing Health

Better education leads to better care when capable and committed people bring knowledge to life, feel supported to develop further, and inspire the next generation of health professionals. To prepare for a forward-looking, future-ready workforce, we cultivate learning through multi-pronged approaches. We offer a myriad of learning opportunities and connect educators across the AMC through interprofessional communities of practice where peers collaborate and learn together. These communities strengthen abilities, reinforce values and support professional identities that add fulfilment to our roles and our lives. We embrace diverse perspectives and professions, aiming to foster a culture where continuous learning and improvement permeates all we do.

And the impetus for what we do is to have meaningful impact. We see success through many lenses, from advancing the capabilities of our educators and sharpening the clinical expertise of healthcare professionals, to ultimately improving the health of our patients and communities.

We warmly welcome you to join a community of educators that together, in service to our patients and populations, is continuously striving toward Advancing Education, Enhancing Health.

Welcome to AMEI!
