All the techniques of diagnosis and intervention in the treatment of reproductive problems from the analysis of the male part, in a course of high qualification and enormous interest for the professional"

Reproductive Medicine is a speciality which has been advancing at an incredible rate in the last few years, fundamentally thanks to the improvement in laboratory techniques and the development of new genetic diagnosis techniques. In many cases, they can shed light on the failure of previous reproductive treatments by offering new alternatives. 
Doctors in this field should stay up-to-date on the area of diagnosis and treatment, but should also deepen their knowledge of the work that takes place in the laboratory. This helps to be able to transmit the necessary information to patients, especially if treatments aren’t successful. Likewise, within the laboratory, there must be an understanding of the work of the practice, the types of stimulation and the different factors that can affect the outcome of the treatments. Team work in the Human Reproduction Unit is what allows the treatments to be more personalized. 

The objective of this postgraduate certificate is to give a global vision to all professionals that allows them to keep up-to-date in the work of the entire Assisted Reproduction Unit. 

Spread over 12 months, this postgraduate certificate is composed of 11 modules and more than 50 topics, where important and innovative aspects will be addressed. These include the latest developments in the study of the female factor, especially at the level of endometrial factor and in-depth Study of the Male Factor. In addition there is focus on applications of genetic techniques in improving results, improvements in the laboratory through time-lapse systems, culture media and quality control systems. All this has been designed by a team of leading specialists in Reproductive Medicine in each one of the aspects dealt with throughout the course. 

With a methodological design based on proven teaching techniques, this complete course will take you through different teaching approaches to allow you to learn in a dynamic and effective way”

The postgraduate certificate in Study of the Male Factor contains the scientific most complete and up-to-date educational program on the market. The most important features of the program include:

• Latest technology in online teaching software
• Highly visual teaching system, supported by graphic and schematic contents that are easy to assimilate and understand
• Practical cases presented by practising experts
• State-of-the-art interactive video systems
• Teaching supported by telepractice
• Continuous updating and recycling systems
• Self-regulating learning: full compatibility with other occupations
• Practical exercises for self-evaluation and learning verification
• Support groups and educational synergies: questions to the expert, debate and knowledge forums
• Communication with the teacher and individual reflection work
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection
• Supplementary documentation databases are permanently available, even after the course

Our innovative telepractice concept will give you the opportunity to learn through an immersive experience, which will provide you with a faster integration and a much more realistic view of the contents: “learning from an expert”

Our teaching staff is composed of medical professionals, practising specialists. In this way, we ensure that we provide you with the training update we are aiming for. A multidisciplinary team of professors form and experience in different environments, who will develop the theoretical knowledge in an efficient way, but, above all, will bring their practical knowledge derived from their own experience to the course: one of the differential qualities of this postgraduate certificate. 

This mastery of the subject is complemented by the effectiveness of the methodological design of this postgraduate certificate. Developed by a multidisciplinary team of e-learning experts, it integrates the latest advances in educational technology. This way, you will be able to study with a range of comfortable and versatile multimedia tools that, will give you the operability you need in your training.  

The design of this program is based on Problem-Based Learning: an approach that conceives learning as a highly practical process. To achieve this remotely, we will use telepractice:  with the help of an innovative interactive video system, and learning from an expert, you will be able to acquire the knowledge as if you were actually dealing with the scenario you are learning about. A concept that will allow you to integrate and fix learning in a more realistic and permanent way. 

This 100% online postgraduate certificate will allow you to study from anywhere in the world. All you need is a computer or mobile device with an internet connection"

Our innovative teaching methodology will allow you to study as if you were dealing with real cases, and therefore increasing your training"

The main objective of this postgraduate certificate is to bring the students' knowledge up-to-date in all areas surrounding decision making during the evaluation of the patient and her partner. This includes the diagnosis, prognosis and the subsequent treatments. A structured approach in all areas related to assisted reproduction, that will allow you to make a leap in your professional career with the expertise of the best online university in the world. 

The objective of the training is to enable the specialist to acquire the theoretical and practical skills necessary to apply the most interesting and advanced advances in the male factor and its reproductive problems"
