This program will provide you with a sense of confidence in medical practice, which will help you grow personally and professionally”

Clinical Dermatology has been gaining prominence as the pathophysiological mechanisms of the pathological processes affecting the skin and its annexes have become better understood. As a result, the means and ways of treating the diseases that manifest themselves in the skin have become more widely known. In fact, in recent times it has become a recurrent discipline in different sectors of care, being a common reason for consultation, both at primary and specialized care level. 

This scenario brings with it the challenge of maintaining a level of care that meets the new needs of the patient. For this reason, it is essential that the professionals who provide care to patients with dermatological pathology are properly qualified and have up-to-date knowledge in order to implement quality medicine. 

At the diagnostic level, the advances that are being made in the knowledge of the etiology of each of the diseases, emerging pathologies, new imaging and laboratory techniques and diagnostic algorithms that are in continuous renewal, leads us to the need to keep our knowledge of pediatric dermatology and other related specialties (pediatrics, genetics, radiology, etc.) that experience constant innovation. At the therapeutic level, the appearance of new drugs and techniques for already known pathologies and the need for new strategies for the integral approach to the patient make it more than necessary to know all the arsenal of resources that we could, if necessary, use to attend to our patients with the maximum guarantee. The program is designed to provide an online specialization equivalent to 3,000 hours, and all theoretical and practical knowledge is presented through high-quality multimedia content, analysis of clinical cases prepared by experts, master classes and video techniques that allow the exchange of knowledge and experience, maintain and update the educational level of its members, create protocols for action and disseminate the most important developments in the specialty. With online education, students can organize their own learning process, adapting it to their schedules, in addition to being able to access the contents from any computer or mobile device. 

This comprehensive program is designed for medical specialists interested in learning about the latest advances in the field of clinical dermatology and pediatric dermatology. In addition, this specialization program may be of interest to physicians from other specialties who wish to update their knowledge in a convenient way, without having to attend frequent scientific meetings or take multiple short specialization programs for each area of interest.
