Course Description
The Masterclass in Clinical Cardiology course is designed to provide medical graduates with the knowledge, skills and training required to manage common cardiovascular conditions. The course incorporates most of the lifelong learning competencies for general cardiologists recommended by international guidelines. The aim of this course is to empower medical graduates who are already working or planning to work in cardiology units of hospitals with deeper understanding of cardiology topics. General practitioners who wish to improve their knowledge and skills in managing patients with cardiovascular conditions will also benefit immensely from this course.
Apart from online reading content, there are Live Virtual classes (webinars) by expert faculty throughout the course to complement the curriculum. There are also many simulation modules, where the students can experience procedures with web-based simulation environment.
This course is complemented by a 3-month rotational internship wherein the training doctor is posted in the cardiology department of accredited training hospitals with postings in OPD, IPD, ICU, and other relevant areas. This course is certified by Medvarsity and Apollo Hospitals Educational & Research Foundation (AHERF).
