TECH has designed this 100% online program through high quality content, developed by a teaching staff with extensive experience in the field of Pediatric Ophthalmology"

At birth, human beings have not yet fully developed their visual system.
Accordingly, the maturation of sight takes a dynamic process that contains some anatomical alterations after birth. Specialists in this area have for many years researched exercises to aid in the care and good practice that will help the child's ocular progression. But today there are more innovative tools that will complement these processes, which must be mastered by the specialist.

The importance of the health and well-being of infants has led to great concern in this sector. For this reason, the practitioner must be at the forefront of the importance of binocular vision development in childhood. In this sense, TECH has designed this program that assures the graduate a complete update in monocular aspects of sensory perception.

Throughout this academic process, the graduate will have the opportunity to focus on methods and tools for visual screening in childhood. All this, through an academic proposal that is distinguished by its high quality multimedia didactic material, and with 24/7 access.

TECH flexible hours and excellence allow professionals to combine their daily work and personal activities with a unique and effective update. With no classroom attendance or classes with fixed schedules, the graduate is faced with an academic proposal that provides a real response to the needs of present and future physicians.

This postgraduate certificate in Basis of Vision Development in Pediatric Ophthalmology contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features include:

• Practical case studies presented by experts in Pediatric Ophthalmology
• The graphic, schematic, and practical contents with which they are created, provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice
• Practical exercises where the self-assessment process can be carried out to improve learning
• Its special emphasis on innovative methodologies
• Theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection

This program gathers the best ways to diagnose and address ocular deviations in children using innovative tools in education"

The program’s teaching staff includes professionals from the field who contribute their work experience to this educational program, as well as renowned specialists from leading societies and prestigious universities.

The multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive education programmed to learn in real situations.

This program is designed around Problem-Based Learning, whereby the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the academic year For this purpose, the students will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts.

TECH applies the Relearning method allowing to consolidate the concepts in a simple way, achieving the successful development of the postgraduate certificate"

The graduate will deepen in vergence and ocular reflexes and expand their knowledge in the physiological processes underlying visual perception"

The purpose of this course is to provide the medical professional with the latest knowledge and skills related to the anatomy and function of the sensory structures in the pediatric eye. In this way, they will increase their skills for the management of the main problems during this stage. For this, TECH has developed this academic program, which offers the medical specialist the possibility of combining his update with his other daily activities, since he will not have to be subject to a specific schedule.

This postgraduate certificate has been elaborated with the purpose of offering the specialist to offer the specialist an exclusive and updated material and updated material in the area of Pediatric Ophthalmology"
