UDLA launches a pioneering project in Chile to support the student journey in Clinical Education CommentsUniversidad de Las Américas formally presented the INTERNCLIC Clinical Education Management System at a meeting with representatives of ADEMSYS. The initiative, awarded as part of the institution's Digital Transformation process, positions UDLA as a leader in Chile by spearheading the development of a system that integrates Clinical Education management with student support throughout their educational journey. The platform will digitalize and integrate the planning, administration, and tracking processes of clinical training activities in the various settings where they take place. Through a student access module, INTERNCLIC will allow students to view their rotations, schedules, and assigned centers, upload required documentation, and facilitate communication with the teams responsible for their clinical training. It also includes attendance tracking via geolocation and the generation of reports and indicators to support decision-making. "Digital transformation at UDLA is a strategic process aimed at strengthening our management and improving the student experience throughout their university journey. INTERNCLIC is a concrete expression of this purpose: it will allow us to integrate information, anticipate needs, and support clinical training in a closer and more timely manner. With this project, we continue moving toward a university that puts innovation and technology at the service of people and the quality of its educational processes," says Alejandro Zamorano, Provost of UDLA. An integrated management system for better supportUDLA developed INTERNCLIC together with ADEMSYS, based on institutional requirements and the reality of its Clinical Education. Its features include agreement administration, clinical slot management, rotation scheduling, student assignment, and document control, as well as integration with other institutional systems. The platform will bring together information that is currently managed manually and across different sources. With this, teams will be able to track clinical activities, identify needs in a timely manner, and improve coordination between the General Directorate of Clinical Education, the faculties, the campuses, and the clinical sites. The project includes a gradual implementation, with configuration, piloting, and evaluation stages before its institutional rollout.
