Training: Implementing IDMP
using FHIR

Principles and concepts of ISO Identification of Medicinal Products (IDMP) and HL7 Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR)

Next training
Open date

Education program for stakeholders currently working on IDMP related data management/governance projects

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has chosen the HL7 FHIR standard for the implementation of ISO IDMP. This online training course offers a solid overview of the IDMP standard, and overview of the FHIR exchange standard, as well as interactive sessions focused on the implementation of IDMP using FHIR.

The attendees are expected to follow two education blocks:
1. Principles and concepts of ISO IDMP     |     2 days (5 hours p/d)     |    Open date
2. Principles of FHIR and FHIR in IDMP     |     2 days (5 hours p/d)     |     Open date


It is possible to follow the 2-day ISO IDMP training only.

Learning goals

Upon completion of this training course, you will understand:
• The IDMP data model. 
• The use cases in which the IDMP data model can be applied. 
• All of the EMA SPOR data services and how these relate to the IDMP data model. 
• The process around EMA SPOR services based on the Target Operating Model (TOM) and the associated timing. 

And will be able to:
• Plan and prepare an effective strategy for IDMP implementation to meet its deadlines. 
• Describe the characteristics and contents of the core IDMP models including message exchange. 
• Explain the key principles underlying the FHIR exchange standard.
• Build upon hands-on experience with FHIR gained during the training course.
• Help their organization to determine if, when, where and how they might implement IDMP using FHIR.
• Explain the developments with FHIR and the implications it has. 
• Define your implementation roadmap and tools, to start defining and publishing your specifications.

Our main goal is 

For you to understand ISO IDMP and HL7 FHIR in IDMP

We selected two expert trainers covering all aspects of IDMP and FHIR in IDMP. This unique combination ensures you to get a practical training for a successful implementation of ISO IDMP (SPOR).  

We follow up on all attendees, because we want you to understand IDMP and FHIR in IDMP. In case you feel a gap in your knowledge, we offer extra sessions and will address this gap and new developments to you.
