To be competitive in the market, these changes need to be studied by doctors and nurses. According to the requirements of the professional community, medical workers must undergo regular advanced training at least once every five years.

According to labor legislation, an employee can be sent to courses in the following cases:

In addition to the increase in the overall demand for online learning, it has also increased due to the COVID-19 pandemic, due to the fact that now training can only be done online (until the situation stabilizes).

Table 3. Absolute liquidity in the field of advanced training of medical personnel in comparison with all sectors of the Indian economy, 2015-2019, times

 

In general, the analysis of industry financial ratios of the medical personnel development industry in India shows a low profitability before tax, which may be a consequence of excessively high competition in the industry along with high fixed administrative and commercial costs. At the same time, indicators of sectoral values ​​of current and absolute liquidity, financial stability in the aggregate indicate the ability of most enterprises to repay current debt at the expense of existing current (current) assets. Too high current liquidity ratio of the industry reflects the insufficiently efficient use of current assets or short-term financing, depending on the industry enterprise. The high level of the industry's absolute liquidity ratio testifies to the inefficient and irrational use of funds that could be directed to the development of industry enterprises. It also means the presence of unclaimed amounts of money on the accounts of organizations in the industry.
