Prime Healthcare’s PrimE-Academy delivers a scalable, systemwide virtual learning platform designed to ensure equitable access to high-quality education across a multi-site health system. Using synchronous, asynchronous and hybrid methodologies, the academy combines a robust video on-demand library with adaptable site-specific toolkits to reinforce skills in real time and support hands-on application. Enterprisewide focus groups and needs assessments guide curriculum development, with recent expansions in behavioral health, emergency services and maternal-child health reflecting frontline and organizational priorities. The model breaks down geographic and size-based barriers, creating a unified learning community while allowing hospitals to tailor content to local patient populations. In 2025, the program was presented at the Association for Nurses in Professional Development national conference as “Creating a Virtual Learning Community in a Multi-Site Organization” and received the “Participant’s Choice Award.”
