This review examines the burgeoning role of online learning in advancing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within the healthcare industry. With the global push towards achieving SDGs by 2030, innovative educational approaches have become crucial. Online learning emerges as a pivotal strategy in this endeavor, offering scalable, flexible, and accessible education solutions to healthcare professionals worldwide.
