What Do They Mean by Health Informatics? Health Informations Posts Compared to Program Standards
There is a lack of alignment between and within the competencies and skills required by health informatics(HI)-related jobs and those present in academic curriculum frameworks.This study uses computational topic modeling for gap analysis of career needs vs.curriculum objectives.The seven AMIACAHIIM-accepted core knowledge domains were used to categorize a corpus of HI-related job postings(N=475)from a major United States-based job posting website.Computational modeling-generated topics were created and then compared and matched to the seven core knowledge domains.The HIdefining core domain,representing the intersection of health,technology and social/behavioral sciences matched only 45.9%of job posting content.Therefore,the authors suggest that bidirectional communication between academia and industry is needed in order to better align educational objectives to the demands of the job market.
