August 8, 2024

PW Skills, the upskilling vertical of Physics Wallah (PW) an online ed-tech platform has launched School of Healthcare across five cities in India- Noida, Indore, Lucknow, Patna and Delhi.

This initiative comes in the wake of increasing demand within India’s healthcare sector, which has been growing at a CAGR of 22% since 2016 and currently employs 4.7 million professionals directly according to the platform.

They believe it will address the shortage of skilled healthcare workers by offering specialised courses. These programs are designed to meet industry standards and cater to the diverse needs of the healthcare market.

Ashish Sharma, Chief Business Officer (CBO), PW, said, “India’s healthcare sector is experiencing rapid growth, yet only 15% of our 65 lakh allied health professionals are vocationally trained. This significant gap highlights the urgent need for high-quality, affordable education. The recent government legislation defining allied health professional categories and university guidelines has created a possible environment for innovation.”

Students are offered practical internships as a component, offering hands-on experience crucial for professional development. For B.Vocational courses such as Medical Lab Technician (MLT) and Operation Theatre Technician (OTT), students will spend two years in classroom training followed by a year of intensive internship. Similarly, Advanced Diploma programs in MLT and OTT offer a balanced mix of theoretical learning and practical exposure through a one-year classroom session and a subsequent year of internship.
