I am also involved in the "e-Hospital4Future" project, which aims to enhance the education of healthcare professionals by integrating training modules covering social, technical, and digital competencies. For over 15 years, I have been the ICT Verantwoordelijke Opleiding Verpleegkunde (ICT Manager for Nursing Education) at Hogeschool PXL. In this capacity, I have been involved in the development of E-Learning within the nursing program. My expertise includes Nursing Education and Lecturing. I also have a long history as an Instructional Designer, developing practice-oriented digital didactic materials for hospitals and home care from November 2007 to November 2021. I am also a seasoned trainer, providing training for Office 365, Onenote, Prezi, Moovly and Canva for both beginners and advanced users, a role I've had since November 2009.
