"About The live virtual EPEC Course"
This is an advanced ECG interpretation course designed from a clinical perspective, employing an innovative teaching method known as the
"Storytelling Approach"
based on real-life case scenarios.
This method has proven to be a highly effective tool for enhancing knowledge retention, increasing learner engagement, and improving the applicability of skills in real-world practice.
Since its launch in 2016, this course has been completed by over 2,000 clinicians from more than 20 countries, & they are spreading their knowledge across the globe now, consistently receiving excellent feedback.
The live virtual version of the EPEC course is conducted four times a year, following the UK time zone.
The face-to-face version of the course is typically held as a pre- or post-conference event in various countries, including Egypt, Jordan, Oman, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE.
One of the major challenges with the live EPEC course was overcoming geographical barriers, which led to the development of the virtual version.
The course uses the approach of "Blended Learning" to achieve its goals via a mix of:
- Pre-course preparatory modules.
- 1 full live virtual interactive educational day (The Main Event).
- Post-course access to recorded material to enhance further learning.
A verifiable certificate with a unique serial number will be provided after completion of the course.
"Accreditation"
This course has been approved by the Federation of the Royal Colleges of Physicians of the United Kingdom for 8 category 1 (external) CPD credits
