Learning Management Systems

This year, Learning Management Systems partnered with mdBriefCase to ensure accessibility for physicians. All staff and physicians now have access to myEducation. We continue to explore opportunities for development and growth of mobile learning.

Sunnybrook’s New Online Registration System: A One-Stop Shop for Students!

With more than 4,000 learners arriving at Sunnybrook each year, we knew that we needed a more user friendly way for students to register. Working together across more than 25 different professions, we have implemented a robust system that can handle all of the information for our three campuses.

Our students now have access to register from anywhere in the world using our easy-to-use web-based system. For our education team, we also have a significantly enhanced way of managing data, compiling reports and communicating with our students. Having all of our student information in one place is fantastic!

Over the last year Sunnybrook’s education team partnered with our vendor, Knowledge4You, to implement MedSIS 3C, a system that supports functions at every step of the learner life cycle—from registration to deregistration. Working together across professions has helped us streamline our processes and provide a more consistent service to our students. In addition it has helped us grow as a team.

As of November 1, 2016 we can now say that we are ‘live’ with our new system!

What are our staff saying?

I am very pleased with the outcome of our new registration system, especially with how this system has enhanced the students’ registration experience.

“When we used to send out invitations to interprofessional learning activities for students, we used to have to fan them out through more than 25 different people—now we can do this at the touch of a button!”

Director, Interprofessional Education

What are our students saying?

It was very organized. I was here last year and I find this more convenient.
It was very helpful not running around for forms. No more carrying paper!
Great way to receive information about the placement, e.g. news section.
I actually enjoyed my registration (did I just say that?!)
