TruMerit, an organization recognized for developing healthcare personnel globally, has announced a strategic collaboration with EnGen, an innovative English learning platform specifically aimed at the healthcare sector. This partnership’s primary goal is to support nurses and other internationally trained healthcare professionals by helping them improve their language skills to excel in a work environment that demands English proficiency, as well as to facilitate their integration into new communities.
Thanks to this agreement, all current and former applicants of TruMerit’s credential evaluation services will have individual access to the EnGen platform, along with advanced tools for learning English. The program includes specialized training that highlights the specific demands of working in healthcare, enabling students not only to boost their confidence but also to be better equipped for key roles in a sector facing a growing personnel shortage.
EnGen’s method combines AI-driven teaching with human assistance, which includes online group workshops and coaching sessions. This combination allows professionals to Acquire specific language skills essential not only for obtaining the necessary certifications but also for advancing their careers and adapting to community life in their new environment.
With thousands of nurses and other healthcare professionals arriving in the United States each year to address staffing shortages, communication skills become essential. This ability not only enhances collaboration among teams but also optimizes patient care, a critical aspect in a sector where every detail counts to ensure patient safety. In addition to verifying training and licenses, U.S. regulations require an evaluation of English proficiency, serving as a protective measure for patients.
Dr. Peter Preziosi, President and CEO of TruMerit, emphasized the importance of this initiative for the development of healthcare professionals: “We are committed to helping migrant nurses and other healthcare workers thrive at every stage of their careers. In the United States, this means the opportunity to improve their language skills.”
Meanwhile, Dr. Katie Brown, Founder and Director of Training at EnGen, highlighted that the program delivers very positive results. Recent data shows that 94% of students feel more confident using English in their work, while 92% have seen an improvement in their job skills. EnGen not only focuses on professional English but also offers training on adapting to life in an English-speaking country, covering aspects like social integration and preparation for U.S. citizenship.
Additionally, TruMerit has implemented special options for spouses and other family members of healthcare professionals, allowing them to access EnGen resources at reduced rates, recognizing the importance of family in the adaptation process.
TruMerit, formerly known as CGFNS International, has nearly five decades of experience supporting the professional mobility of nurses, facilitating the recognition of their training and experience to practice in the U.S. and other countries. With its new focus, the organization aims to address the increasing needs of the global healthcare landscape through research and solutions from its Global Healthcare Personnel Development Institute.
EnGen, for its part, is a B Corporation dedicated to providing a large-scale English teaching model, focusing its efforts on resolving access to language training for adult workers in the United States and collaborating with various sectors to promote economic and job mobility.
