Episode #332: Preparing Healthcare Students for an AI-Driven Workforce
About this episode
The episode discusses preparing healthcare students for an AI-driven workforce through scalable education and innovation.
We’re pleased this week to chat with Michael Betz of Covista about tackling the growing healthcare workforce shortage through scalable education and AI-driven innovation. They explore how Covista is leveraging its network of institutions—and a new partnership with Google Cloud—to build an AI-powered classroom that enables more personalized, adaptive learning experiences at scale. The conversation also highlights the importance of preparing students with practical AI skills through targeted credentials, ensuring graduates can not only use these tools responsibly but lead innovation in their fields. Ultimately, it’s a call for institutions to move beyond experimentation—focusing on intentional, student-centered implementation that combines technology, iteration, and strong change management to drive real impact.
