Adtalem Global Education

#AI integration in healthcare education is accelerating, and Adtalem is committed to keeping pace with emerging technologies to best support our students.

Amid the nursing shortage, Adtalem is helping close that gap - one nurse at a time. In a recent Becker's Healthcare podcast interview, our Chairman & CEO Steve Beard joined Lukas Voss, MS to share how Adtalem and SSM Health are building a sustainable pipeline of 400+ nurses annually through the Aspiring Nurse Program. Together with Chamberlain University, this partnership blends funding, education and job placement to deliver immediate workforce impact in communities that need it most.

“We’ve built in a tremendous amount of flexibility to adapt the program and its features as we learn together.” - Steve Beard, Adtalem Chairman and CEO, shared in #ModernCEO column in Fast Company At Adtalem, we believe that transformative partnerships are built on shared accountability, mutual investment and a commitment to community impact. Our collaboration with SSM Health exemplifies how strategic alliances in healthcare and education can drive meaningful change - empowering future healthcare professionals and improving outcomes in the communities we serve. 

About 65% of rural areas have a shortage of primary care physicians (American Medical Association). Access to care and the level of care can vary significantly based on where you live. At Adtalem, we’re addressing these disparities head-on by expanding healthcare career pathways through partnerships especially for students committed to serving under-resourced communities. Through education, training and innovation, we’re not just increasing access to care—we’re investing in the future providers who will deliver it. 

Communities across the country need skilled, compassionate healthcare professionals, and we’ve built another transformational pathway to get them there.      Chairman & CEO Steve Beard appeared on NYSE TV to share how we're addressing this challenge through strategic innovation. Our new partnership with SSM Health puts our Growth with Purpose strategy into action, creating comprehensive solutions that align education with real workforce needs. This collaboration will strengthen healthcare communities and offers a replicable framework for driving meaningful career outcomes nationwide. 

More than 40% of American University of the Caribbean & Ross University School of Medicine residency placements will complete their residency in a federally designated Medically Underserved Area/Population. This kind of support is a catalyst, not only uplifting future healthcare professionals, but also empowering them to deliver care where it’s needed most. Backed by Adtalem’s commitment to expanding access to quality healthcare, these pathways help strengthen underserved communities while shaping purpose-driven medical careers.

The devastating floods in Central Texas hit communities where many of our Adtalem Global Education colleagues and students live and work. Our response was immediate. We confirmed all 300+ colleagues and students in affected areas are safe. We also knew the broader community required support. So Adtalem, Chamberlain University and Walden University rallied together to commit $30,000 to International Medical Corps, which is deploying medical volunteers and critical supplies where they're most needed. I'm proud of our institutions coming together to extend our impact beyond the classroom to serve the communities where we live, study and work.

The nursing workforce crisis is local, urgent and growing. That’s why we are thrilled to announce the launch of the Aspiring Nurse Program—a large-scale partnership between Chamberlain University and SSM Health designed to fund nursing education, enhance clinical readiness and create a pathway to employment across SSM Health’s care sites in Missouri, Oklahoma, Illinois and Wisconsin. This partnership is the first of its kind and will help build a workforce that reflects and serves the communities it’s rooted in, with more than 400 new nurses projected annually. At Adtalem, we’re not only expanding access to education. We’re investing in long-term, local solutions that strengthen healthcare from the ground up. Read more: https://lnkd.in/gRiuS5ia
