For healthcare and rescue services it is vital to safeguard quality and assess skills regularly. The medical technology giant Dräger has therefore chosen to work with TicTac Interactive to produce world-class online training. At SAMTIT 2018, Dräger won the prestigious “Interactive Training of the Year” award.

Dräger won the “Interactive Training of the Year” award at the Swedish Users’ Association for Medical Technology and IT (SAMTIT) 2018 – a voluntary association of healthcare professionals who have responsibility for medical equipment, IT and training.
Dräger won the award for its Zeus IE anaesthesia control solution. The interactive training for Zeus IE was produced in collaboration with TicTac. TicTac has previously supplied Dräger with the GO! online training platform.
