CREATE — Creating Real Educational Applications for Teaching Excellence — is an AINE (AI-eNabled Education) initiative. Over a single day, you'll work in small teams to develop practical, real-world AI use cases that tackle challenges in health professions or clinical education, using accessible no-code tools with governance and responsible use built in.
We tackle education-related problems in the healthcare setting — not clinical service delivery. The learning comes first; the product is secondary.
Upskill in no-code tools and AI through making. No prior AI or coding experience is required to take part and contribute.
Connect and collaborate with peers across NHG Health and its partners, building cross-disciplinary communities that outlast the day.
Top teams are shortlisted for the final showcase, with exciting prizes on the line.
Collaborate with peers across NHG Health and its partners.
Gain hands-on confidence with no-code AI tools you can reuse.
Future-proof your skillset through innovation and design thinking.
Everything you need to know about the day, who it's for, and what we're setting out to achieve together.
Address education-related problems — not clinical service delivery — in the healthcare setting.
Equip health professions educators and staff with practical no-code tools and AI fluency.
Foster cross-disciplinary collaboration that continues beyond the event.
Embed responsible, governed use of AI throughout every project.
Keep learning at the centre — product outcomes are secondary.
A learning-first hackathon — no prior AI or coding experience is required.
Our growing collection of work on no-code and low-code approaches to building tools for health professions education — the research behind the hackathon's learning-first philosophy.
Introduces vibe coding — an AI-assisted, no-code approach that lets educators build interactive, customisable clinical simulations without programming. Demonstrated with two tools: the Differential Diagnosis Trainer (DDT) and the Insulin & Blood Sugar Simulation (IBSS), showing gains in accessibility, cost-effectiveness and scalability.
Practical tips to help educators design, develop and sustain their own educational applications with AI-assisted vibe coding — covering how to lower technical barriers and foster experimentation, alongside the common pitfalls and limitations to anticipate.
A 1-day Vibe Coding workshop in which all participants built functional educational apps within the day — including a plain-language clinical communication rewriter and a simulated-patient practice module with AI feedback. Self-rated competency rose from 3.3 to 4.2 / 5 (n = 11).
Join clinical educators and healthcare professionals for a day of building, learning and connecting around AI in Health Professions Education.

The essentials for deciding, registering and showing up ready to build.
No. Register as an individual if needed; solo participants will be matched into teams of 3-4.
No prior AI or coding experience is required. The day is designed around learning through no-code and low-code building.
Teams should focus on health professions education or clinical education problems, not clinical service delivery tools.
Registration fees will be covered for participants from NHG Health and NTU LKCMedicine.
