Abstract
Digital learning and training tools have become more and more important across a broad range of professions, which in particular accounts for the healthcare sector, where a shortage of training facilities and trainers is quite common. Thus, alternatives like learning over the Internet has become a necessity, although it might still not replace face-to-face teaching and hands-on training to its full extend, which is especially true when recruiting qualified labor from foreign countries. Regarding this, digital formats can significantly shorten ramp-up times, as prospective employees can start gaining knowledge on required terminology and processes independent from their current location. In our paper, we present details about the design and the architecture of our modular, interactive multilingual learning solution for nursing trainees, developed within a research project funded by the German Ministry of Health. Also, we reveal results of an empirical study on learning effect and user acceptance, conducted with a group of Vietnamese nursing trainees.
