Healthcare Selection and Recruitment: Design and Deliver Effective Multiple Mini Interviews (MMIs)

Discover how MMIs can improve healthcare professional student selection

MMIs are an evidence-based interview methodology used in healthcare selection all around the world. Despite the widespread use of MMIs, no consistent best-practice recommendations for the design and administration of MMIs are readily available. Ineffective selection processes, risk lack of parity, potential bias and missing strong candidates.

On this course, you will learn how an evidence-based design process will optimise the effectiveness of MMIs. You will understand why MMIs are recommended in healthcare selection. You will also design an MMI model to deploy in your own organisation.
