Virtued Academy International, affiliated with the Arunalaya Healthcare and Education Alliance, signed an agreement at the British High Commission in New Delhi on October 8. Under this agreement, the academy will incorporate select, licensed e-learning content from NHS England into its medical fellowship courses.
The curriculum includes material developed in collaboration with experts from prominent British Royal Colleges and medical organizations. This content will be made available through an authorized distribution partner of e-Integrity Healthcare e-Learning CIC (UK).
The agreement was signed in the presence of Prof. Julia Sutcliffe, Chief Scientific Adviser to the UK’s Department for Business and Trade. She described the initiative as an “excellent example” of the partnership between India and the UK, and commended the entrepreneurs and experts involved. Prof. Krishna N. Sharma, Director of Virtued Academy International, stated that this agreement marks a significant step toward providing doctors with access to world-class medical education. He added that, in collaboration with its international partners, the academy is also developing clinical observership opportunities in UK hospitals. These opportunities will be subject to eligibility and availability, and will be separate from the online courses.
