Dear Colleagues,
Training has always been the main scope of the Hellenic Society of Cardiology, while for the Union of European Medical Specialists homogenization of training around Europe is of utmost importance.
The new Core Curriculum and ETRs (Educational Training Requirements) in Cardiology, create new challenges as they introduce training based upon entrustable professional activities (EPAs) creating thus a more accountable environment in education assessment.
One of the major gaps in worldwide training, that has been identified over the years, is the lack of specific training and certification of the trainers. Trying to fill this gap, the Cardiological Society of Northern Greece & the Hellenic Society of Cardiology are starting a unique, for Greek and European standards, pilot "train the trainers" course, hoping that will be embraced by the responsible authorities and will culminate to a Professional Medical Education activity certifying trainers for Cardiology.
This Hellenic Society of Cardiology "Faculty Development programme for Educational Supervisors and Clinical Supervisors course", is offered by the Education Department at the Royal College of Physicians, London in co-operaton with the Union of European Medical Specialists Section of Cardiology. |
