Abstract: Introduction: The purpose of this study is to find out if healthcare training programs can improve the level of professional work among healthcare providers. As the need for better patient care and ongoing professional development grows, educational approaches are becoming more and more seen as essential ways to give doctors more advanced knowledge and skills. Methods: Both numeric and qualitative data were used in a mixed-methods technique. We looked at 30 peer-reviewed studies that came out between 2015 and 2023 and did a meta-analysis of results linked to clinical performance and the level of patient care. Also, 50 healthcare workers who took part in these training events were interviewed in a semi-structured way. Results: The results of the meta-analysis showed that clinical skills and patient outcomes got better, and the effect size was modest (Cohen's d = 0.5). Qualitative results showed that subjects said the main benefits were more trust and more up-to-date information. When digital tools were used in training, people were more interested and remembered more of what they learnt. Conclusions: Healthcare training programs are very important for improving the standard of clinical practice. The results show that these kinds of programs should continue to get money, with a focus on using digital tools to improve learning and effects. More study needs to be done on how these teaching tools work over time and whether they can be used in a wide range of hospital situations.
