UNLOKing Continuous Medical Learning

How Kenes Digital Education Is Transforming Professional Development

For decades, medical education revolved around annual congresses, printed abstracts, and sporadic webinars. Today, healthcare professionals expect something very different: continuous learning, on-demand access, interactive formats, and accredited education that fits seamlessly into their clinical routine. 

Kenes Digital Education, together with its flagship platform, UNLOK, is at the centre of this transformation. 

Built on the foundation of 60 years of Kenes Group leadership in scientific events, the Digital Education division is redefining how societies, industry partners, and clinicians access, share, and apply medical knowledge throughout the year. The result is a new educational ecosystem that is accessible, accredited, evidence-based, and shaped for the way healthcare professionals learn today. 

A Strategic Pillar of the Kenes Group Vision 

While Kenes Group is globally recognised for delivering world-class medical and scientific congresses, Kenes Digital Education extends this expertise far beyond the in-person meeting. 

Its mandate is clear: turn episodic congress experiences into continuous, year-round and free learning journeys. 

Digital education plays a vital role in the broader Kenes strategy by: 

• creating ongoing engagement before, during, and after congresses 

• supporting societies with branded academies, hubs, and portals 

• enabling long-term, year-round knowledge retention 

• expanding global reach beyond those who can attend in person 

• providing accredited education to tens of thousands of clinicians 

Through hubs like ATTD, WSPID, AD/PD, Autoimmunity, CaReMeLO, and more, Kenes Digital ensures that the scientific impact of each congress continues long after attendees return home. 

With digital academies, webinars, podcasts, and e-learning modules, Kenes Group can now offer its partners a 360-degree educational continuum, uniting live events with enduring online learning.

A Look Behind the Scenes:
A Conversation with Keren 

“No two days are ever the same.” 

Keren begins her mornings reviewing analytics – registrations, email performance, and user behaviour. Her day moves between strategy, content planning, speaker coordination, and cross-team collaboration. 

What’s most rewarding? 

“Seeing high engagement and completion rates, even when working with limited resources. When clinicians rely on our content, it proves the strategy works.” 

.

.
What’s most challenging? 

“Compliance. We work under strict rules, but I enjoy the challenge. It forces creativity and precision.” 

On staying ahead: 

“We attend industry events, follow leaders in digital learning, and continuously test new formats. We’re always learning ourselves.” 

The vision ahead: 

More AI-driven tools, new educational hubs, and potentially an UNLOK mobile app.
“The goal is to make learning even more accessible and more personalised.” 

The Future: Continuous, Global, Data-Driven Medical Learning 

The transformation is already underway. With UNLOK and the wider Kenes Digital ecosystem, medical professionals around the world have access to a comprehensive, accredited and free year-round learning environment. 

For societies, it means global reach and stronger member engagement.
For industry, it means ethical education aligned with medical needs.
For healthcare professionals, it means better skills, better decisions, and better patient outcomes. 

And for Kenes Group, it represents a natural evolution:
from organising scientific meetings to empowering knowledge that extends far beyond the congress hall.
