Training the “NEUROLOGISTS OF TOMORROW”

A Neurology Fellow Blended Education Program

Course Description:

This course is designed to enhance knowledge and expertise of physicians practicing in the field of stroke. It will help develop a workforce of neurologists with training in stroke that can guide, supervise and facilitate stroke care at all levels of healthcare.

Course methodology:

This is an innovative and pioneering work in teaching methodology. Blended learning means a blend of self-directed learning, online interaction, formative feedback and face to face skills development. Participants will have online education and interactive guidance with feedback every week, required tasks and assignments to be submitted online, providing them complete freedom on when to do them, where to do them and how to do them.

Target Audience:

Neurology trainees and Recent Graduates of Neurology Training Programs

Goals:

To enhance the knowledge and expertise of physicians practicing in the field of stroke.
To develop workforce of neurologists with training in stroke that can guide, supervise and facilitate stroke care at all levels of healthcare.
To help facilitate the appropriate, ethical, and safe use of thrombolysis therapy.
To facilitate establishment of stroke centers of various levels.
