Free HL7® FHIR® course
The no-cost introduction to HL7® FHIR®1.
What is this course?
This free course introduces HL7® FHIR®1 to healthcare professionals, analysts, project teams, and other beginners. It focuses on the concepts you need to understand FHIR conversations and project documentation; it does not ask you to write code or create FHIR artifacts.
What will you learn?
By the end of the course, you should be able to explain:
- the healthcare interoperability problem FHIR helps address;
- resources, references, and Bundles;
- how HTTP, RESTful APIs, JSON, and XML fit into FHIR exchange;
- the difference between a base resource, profile, extension, and implementation guide; and
- why terminology, version agreements, security, and governance still matter in a real project.
No prior FHIR or software-development knowledge is required. Allow about 90–120 minutes for the current main path. This overview does not cover profile authoring, FHIRPath, slicing, validation-tool setup, or certification-exam preparation.
