ST. JOHN’S, NL, Nov. 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Newfoundland and Labrador’s own Keyin College is teaming up with global leaders Huron, a professional services firm, and Vantiq, the leading platform for end-to-end real-time AI orchestration, in an exciting new collaboration with Newfoundland and Labrador Health Services (NLHS). The group has been officially pre-qualified as an Innovation Partner under NLHS’s 2025–2026 Innovation Strategy, opening the door to new digital health training and technology initiatives that will strengthen healthcare delivery across the province.
This collaboration will combine local leadership with global industry expertise to help NLHS improve patient care, modernize systems, and build a future-ready healthcare workforce.

As the lead, Keyin College brings 45 years of educational leadership and a province-wide campus network that mirrors NLHS’s reach. Its agile micro-credential programs will support rapid workforce development for major digital health projects, including the implementation of Epic, the province’s new electronic health record system.
Huron delivers world-class implementation tailored to each organization’s needs, backed by a proven track record of results across more than 800 health systems. With over 3,500 healthcare-focused consultants, including more than 130 EHR-certified experts, Huron strives to drive every engagement with measurable outcomes and lasting transformation.
