Through our EDUCARE training and education programs we support HCPs across our EMEA region with training pathways designed to ease the adoption of new technologies and therapies into practice.
Through our network of Institutes for Advancing Science (IAS) and selected Centres of Education we provide face to face training programs, simulation workshops and programs to develop cognitive decision making and surgical skills. Our currently available courses are listed below.
These complement our online and digital training offerings which are availabel on our EDUCARE website on the Boston Scientific Urology YouTube Channel and through our channel partner Advances In Surgery (AIS Channel).
We work with highly experienced surgeons, physicians, nurses and other health professionals who share their expertise with our course delegates, we firmly believe that the best model of education and training is medical expert and peer led, and you can see the biographies of some of our faculty members for our EMEA training program below.
