Archer Review said that Erck brings more than two decades of leadership experience in healthcare technology and education to her new role.
“Archer has built a solid foundation with innovative, student-focused solutions and I look forward to building on that as we think of the ways we can support healthcare students and professionals throughout their journey,” Erck said in a statement.
