The workshops encourage students to be interested in a career working in the health tech industry.<\/p>\r\n<p>Hosted by Medtech\u2019s Learning Consultants, the workshop starts with them introducing themselves and describing the career paths that have led them to where they are today. It also introduces Medtech and its <a href=\"https:\/\/medtechglobal.com\/nz\/\">Practice Management System (PMS)<\/a>, including its role in healthcare and its importance for healthcare administration and patient care. The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is also explained, highlighting the planning, designing, building, and testing stages. In the second half of the workshop, the students get to try using Medtech\u2019s software themselves.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Opportunities in health tech<\/h3>\r\n<p>The workshops highlight all the roles you could have at a health tech company and that they don\u2019t need to train as a doctor or nurse to work in healthcare; there are plenty of other roles in the healthcare ecosystem that help doctors, nurses, and patients have a smoother and better experience.<\/p>\r\n<p>Together, P\u016bhoro and Medtech are committed to fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion and supporting M\u0101ori students&#8217; exploration of careers in STEM.<\/p>\r\n<p>Find out more about P\u016bhoro and STEMM <a href=\"https:\/\/www.puhoro.org.nz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n<p>If you are interested in a career at Medtech, <a href=\"https:\/\/medtechglobal.com\/nz\/contact\/\">contact us<\/a>!<\/p>\r\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>P\u016bhoro STEMM Academy was founded to support M\u0101ori in pursuing a STEM-related career and the next generation of M\u0101ori scientists in New Zealand.
