EULAR On-line Course on Rheumatic Diseases
The EULAR On-Line Course on Rheumatic Diseases (www.eular-onlinecourse.org) is an electronic form of continuous medical education in rheumatology. The course is managed by a scientific course committee responsible for controlling the structure and content of the course and for ensuring regular quality control and advancement.
The full version of the course covers the entire field of rheumatology and consists of 42 illustrated modules, each one covering a specific topic. Each module corresponds to approximately eight hours of study for the student, totalling around 336 hours of educational training. The course operates through the web for the duration of up to two years with a possible extension of one year. It will finish with an on-line exam and upon passing, with a EULAR certificate.
Topics will change every two weeks and are offered by a group of renowned faculty members.
Knowledge and skills are targeted to suit a level of knowledge appropriate for the final years of training as a rheumatologist. The on-line course was developed with a substantial grant from EULAR, so that the entire course can be offered at EUR 300 per participant. In view of further supporting young rheumatologist from countries with a GDP per capita below USD 10'000, EULAR offers participants from these countries a reduced registration fee of EUR 150 for the entire course.
For on-line course participants we offer the new EULAR Textbook on Rheumatic Diseases, published and first presented during the EULAR Congress in Berlin 2012, for a reduced price of EUR 70.
