Estonia is the first country to start teaching HCT in this all-inclusive form. The objective of the master’s curriculum is to prepare Health technology specialists who have acquired the know-how for working in different health care sector enterprises and have the knowledge about the client and patient centred approach and manner of behaviour characteristic of the modern health care system and innovative thinking. |
