The leading provider of educational initiatives for future, young and experienced healthcare professionals!
Continuing professional development of physicians (CPD) is a process of learning and improving professional competencies that allows maintaining/increasing the level of professional activity in accordance with the needs of the healthcare sector.
CPD activities are educational events aimed at maintaining or improving the level of professionalism and developing individual practice to meet the needs of patients and optimise the functioning of the healthcare sector.
The Karazin Centre for Postgraduate Medical Education is a provider of all existing types of CPD activities: specialization cycles, internships, thematic improvement cycles and other CPD activities, and always implements the classic Karazin triad: strong theoretical training, innovative teaching technologies and practical skills development in real practice.
Educational activities in the field of postgraduate medical education are practically oriented, conducted by experienced clinical teachers from among the country’s leading specialists in a simulation centre or in real clinical practice. It has become a tradition to involve the world’s leading experts in the training of students (almost regular cycles of open lectures from lecturers from the USA, UK, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, France, etc.)
The undoubted advantage of Karazin Postgraduate Medical Education is the international certification of programmes and teachers: the University is an official educational centre of the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians (NAEMT, USA), the American Association of Surgeons (USA), the European Resuscitation Council (EU), and some cycles are certified by Harvard University (USA), York University (UK) and other leading scientific and educational institutions.
The newly created Centre for Postgraduate Medical Education carefully preserves the 200-year old traditions of Karazin University in the field of medical training and, at the same time, strives for the wide integration of innovative teaching technologies, the use of modern simulation simulators, thorough development of all practical skills in real clinical practice, updating of educational programmes in accordance with global protocols and guidelines, providing full information and organizational support of students from the moment of enrolment to the receipt of documents.
The Centre’s educational initiatives are based on a solid foundation:
