Learn to keep health information human

AHIMA VLab™ offers your students to see the patient in front of the data. Our patient cases serve as a foundation for an up-close view of real-world practice. Empower your students to become career-ready with virtual practice experience.

 

Practice virtually with authentic health technology.

Simulated applications fall short of authentic practice experience. Engage your students with active, hands-on experience with learning activities designed around authentic healthcare technology.

Of educators we surveyed, more than 80 percent told us that being able to use real software applications in your programs is important to you.1

When you adopt the AHIMA VLab™ you can:

  • Drive innovative learning experiences that authentically represent the professional practice
  • Offer access in both traditional classroom settings and remote learning environments
  • Supplement on-site professional practice experiences and prepare students for the workforce
