WEBINARS
  • Generally, live webinars are open access and often provide up to date/urgent information on topics related to microbiology and infectious diseases.
eLEARNING MODULES
  • ESCMID is currently developing interactive and self-paced elearning content to provide participants with the most engaging learning experience.

Online ESCMID Postgraduate Courses are hosted here and consist of two- to four-day events that focus on specific clinical or laboratory issues. Organisers can be ESCMID Study Groups, related professional societies or individual ESCMID members under the auspices and with the financial support of ESCMID.

These events are open for everyone interested in the fields of clinical microbiology or infectious diseases. If you would like to register for any of these courses, please refer to the ESCMID website.
 

Ecraid is dedicated to keeping all clinical sites within its network in line with the OPERATES criteria: Organised, Prepared, Engaged, Resourced, Active, Trained, Extensive, and Sustainable. Making this a reality is one of the goals of the EU-funded ECRAID-Base project. 

A team within the consortium (Work Package 11 – Training) is tasked with ensuring that the Trained criteria is properly adhered to. This collaboration between ESCMIDERS, and Ecraid helps the sites stay at the top of their game by offering regular training and educational opportunities, both online and in-person.

Training opportunities are available to all sites and investigators within the wider Ecraid network. Select resources and events are open to unaffiliated persons, too.
