Radiography4Future. (2024-2027)

This is an Erasmus+ project which aims to work on both developing an AI educational curriculum for European radiography professionals, lecturers and students, as well as to develop a set of of micro-credentials on artificial intelligence for radiography students, lecturers, and graduates.

Radiography4Future. Lifelong learning among radiographers on Artificial Intelligence (AI) – the development of an AI educational curriculum based on micro-credentials (across European Union).

Code: KA220-HED-815CAAB1

Dates: Dec 1st 2024 – Dec 31st 2026

Goals of the project

• To develop a set of micro-credentials on artificial intelligence for radiography students, lecturers, and graduates to be offered across Higher Education Institution in European countries.
• To fulfil the aim, radiography researchers and lecturers need to develop an AI educational curriculum that encounters the needed knowledge, skills, and competences for radiography students, lecturers, and graduates to understand and master the use of AI in their profession.

In addition, there is a need to identify the most appropriate way of providing micro-credential-based courses across Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in European countries.
To do so, there is a need to:

• Identify the existing AI skills and competences within the radiography profession.
• Identify radiographers’ ability to integrate technology and AI in the person-centred care for patients.
• Elaborate on the needs and expectations from patients, when using AI in the radiography profession.
• Developing the content of a curriculum for AI in radiography suitable for micro-credentials courses.
• Developing a platform for offering the micro-credential courses in a timely and updated across the involved HEIs.
• Pilot-testing and evaluating the AI micro-credential courses at the involved HEIs to identify the most appropriate and feasible micro-credential courses for the radiography profession in the future.

Results expected

Result one is the development, pilot-testing and evaluation of micro-credential courses that encounter the needed knowledge, skills, and competences for radiographers to master the use of AI in their profession. The courses will be based on AI educational curricula, existing knowledge and expected needs expressed by the profession and patients.
Result two is the finalisation of a set of micro-credentials on AI for radiography students, lecturers, and graduates to be offered across the EU countries.
To ensure long-term sustainability and adaption, the project will be based on a collaboration between HEIs across the EU within the radiography profession.
