Taleem soft launch brings a GCC-first healthcare learning marketplace to the region

Taleem, a GCC-first learning platform, built for local healthcare professionals, organisations, and course providers, is offering early access to its marketplace ahead of a full public launch.

The platform’s initial focus is executive-level healthcare education for the Gulf, including flagship pathways developed alongside senior NHS clinicians: Data-Driven Clinical Governance, Human Factors in High-Stakes Clinical Practice, and Leading AI in Healthcare. Verified providers can list their own courses on the marketplace and control the visibility of their identity to prospective clients.

Taleem launches with organisations already onboarded, reflecting early demand for a platform built specifically for the region’s regulatory and clinical context. Taleem is already proving to be the best option in that space, combining GCC-specific compliance considerations, data residency, and content developed with senior clinicians.

“Our courses are created by experts and senior NHS clinicians — including GPs, cardiologists, and clinical governance leads with over 35 years of frontline and leadership experience each. To make the platform relevant to the local market, we’ve combined western clinical expertise with Arabic language and deep regional understanding, so that this isn’t imported content, it’s training built for how healthcare actually works here. We want Taleem to help drive the region’s own ambition: for the Gulf to lead globally in healthcare, not just adopt what everyone else has already done.”
— Yusra Ahmad, CEO, Acuity Data & Taleem

Taleem plans to expand its catalog into additional categories over the coming months as the platform moves toward full public launch.

Yusra Ahmad to speak at the Public Sector Data & AI Summit

Yusra Ahmad, Founder & CEO of Taleem, will present a session titled “Human in the Loop: Placing People at the Heart of Digital Transformation”at the fifth Public Sector Data & AI Summit.

The session explores how AI can transform the public sector — particularly healthcare, through faster diagnosis, better outcomes, and smarter systems — and argues that turning that promise into safe, lasting, adopted practice depends on the people around the technology, not the technology alone.

The talk shares its name with Yusra’s ongoing Substack, Human in the Loop, on the future of the workforce in the age of AI.
