HL7 FHIR Data Modeling Training Course
Deep dive into the world of FHIR profiling and learn all about Resource Validation and creating Implementation Guides.
What is it about?
The FHIR data modeling training course provides an in-depth discussion of the conformance mechanism offered by FHIR, including:
- Resource Validation and the creation of Implementation Guides
- How FHIR Profiles serve a similar purpose to implementation guides, templates, archetypes, and detailed clinical models associated with other interoperability standards,
- How to document the adaptation of the generic FHIR model to a particular context of use
- A series of hands-on exercises allowing the attendee to get an in-depth understanding of the material
The exercises in this course will be done with the Forge R4 tool. You can request a custom course when you need to work with a different version (STU3 or the R5 preview), or when you want to use FHIR Shorthand (FSH) instead of Forge.
What skills will I gain?
Upon completion of this training course, attendees will be able to:
- Explain what the FHIR conformance layer is and how it is used to profile FHIR for a specific context or use case.
- Understand how domain information requirements translate to conformance resources.
- Create a FHIR profile to cover a specific context or use case.
- Register, search and validate conformance resources using tools.
- Be aware of governance issues around the creation and publication of conformance resources.
