QI Connect WebEx series

Dr. Brian Robson, Medical Director, Healthcare Improvement Scotland, introduces the QI Connect WebEx series and tells us about some of the exciting speakers, including a NASA astronaut.

Ever wanted to learn with a global community of improvers? Well Healthcare Improvement Scotland is delighted to be working in partnership with Q community to further extend the reach of QI Connect with colleagues across the world.

Established in 2014, QI Connect is a global WebEx series bringing together international experts in the fields of Quality Improvement, Innovation, Design and Health & Social Care Integration. We offer 10 free WebEx sessions per year and each live session is recorded and made available on our website.

Originally set up at the request of clinicians here in Scotland, QI Connect now spans over 572 organisations from health and social care (and beyond!) across 51 countries. Fifty-six universities, from Dundee to Harvard, also use QI Connect to bring students together in classrooms to listen, learn and share.

We have had some amazing speakers to date including; Marshall Ganz, Don Berwick, Don Norman and many more!

Each session is designed to be fun and interactive – and there is even an opportunity through our regular competition to win a much coveted QI Connect mug! What more could you ask for, right?!

As QI Connect as evolved, our audience of QI Connectors has developed into a learning network and we are increasing seeing examples of colleagues sharing tools and resources and, most importantly, offering support to each other on their improvement journeys. A true testament that the world of improvement is not divided by geography and we all share that common purpose: to make care better for the people we serve.
