From confusion to confidence: How Rasheedat built the foundation for a new healthcare career

After beginning her career as a registered nurse, Rasheedat knew she wanted to explore new opportunities within healthcare. While nursing was a career she valued deeply, she was looking for a path that offered greater flexibility while allowing her to continue growing professionally.

“Right from the beginning, I knew I needed something more flexible and something that would allow me to grow beyond traditional roles.”

Finding clarity

As Rasheedat began exploring a career as a medical virtual assistant, she found herself jumping between different learning platforms, unsure where to begin. Everything changed when she discovered Udemy. The flexibility to learn at her own pace around work gave her exactly what she needed, while Udemy provided the structure and direction she’d been looking for.

“Before that, I was jumping between platforms looking for courses and I was just so confused. Then I found Udemy. It gave me structure and direction.”
