RESUMEN
Introduction: Applied health informatics infrastructure is a requirement for learning health systems and it is imperative that we train a workforce that can support this infrastructure. Our department offers courses in several interdisciplinary programs with topics ranging from bioinformatics to population health informatics. Due to changes in the field and our faculty members, we sought to assess our courses relevant to applied health informatics. Methods: In this paper, we discuss the three-phase evaluation of our program and include the survey we developed to identify the skills and knowledge base of our faculty. Results: We show how this assessment allowed us to identify gaps and develop strategies for program expansion. Conclusions: A focus on workforce development can help to guide and focus curricular review in an interdisciplinary graduate program.
