Our teaching staff is composed of medical professionals, practicing specialists. In this way we ensure that we deliver the educational update we are aiming for. A multidisciplinary team of physicians, trained and experienced in diverse environments, will develop theoretical knowledge efficiently. More importantly, they will share practical insights derived from their own experience—one of the distinctive qualities of this program.
This mastery of the subject is complemented by the effectiveness of the methodology used in the design of this course. Developed by a multidisciplinary team of e-learning experts, it integrates the latest advances in educational technology. This way, you will be able to study with a range of comfortable and versatile multimedia tools that will give you the operability you need in your training.
The design of this program is based on Problem-Based Learning: an approach that conceives learning as a highly practical process. To achieve this remotely, we will use telepractice: With the help of an innovative interactive video system and the Learning from an Expert approach, you will acquire knowledge as if you were facing the scenario you are learning about at that very moment. This concept will enable you to integrate and consolidate learning in a more realistic and lasting way.
Observing the expert, while performing the task, triggers brain mechanisms similar to those activated when performing the same activity: this is the principle of the high efficiency of our ”learning from an expert”
Make the most of this opportunity to surround yourself with expert professionals and learn from their work methodology”
