Our Standards for Course Design and Development
PHIX Academy is an extension of PHIX Genomics, a company committed to bringing genomic technologies to the Philippines. One of these ways is to present an educational platform that discusses advancements in the medical field, specifically the integration of genomics in handling diseases.
The courses offered in the program are mainly for life science, medical and healthcare professionals and students who want to obtain more knowledge about genomics and its application in clinical practice. There are two course levels: beginner and advanced, and additional certification programs – and each step is a pre-requisite to the higher category.
The platform adheres to Reporting Item Standards for Education and its Evaluation in Genomics (RISE2 Genomics), a set of standards for the design, delivery, and development of genomics education.
Courses are developed, based on, and aligned with the competencies established by the Inter-Society Coordinating Committee for Physician Education in Genomics (ISCC) and with a study published under BMC Medical Education.
