We aimed to develop our students’ skills in sterilization, to support the sector’s demand for qualified staff, to strengthen their foreign language, digital and 21st-century competencies, and to create international collaborations that would enable the transfer of best practices and innovative methods to improve our school’s educational quality.
Our school’s Biomedical Device Technologies programme is relatively new in Türkiye, with limited curriculum and learning modules. Due to the high cost and imported nature of biomedical equipment, our workshops lack the necessary devices, and internship providers are scarce. As a result, vocational training remains theoretical, students graduate without practical skills, and face challenges in meeting sector expectations.
