##IMAGE##

The study of Microbiology and Parasitology is essential in the daily practice of a Clinical Analysis Laboratory. Microorganisms and parasites are causative agents of a wide variety of pathologies. It is also important to bear in mind that many of these microbial agents make up a large part of the normal microbiota of healthy individuals, exerting numerous benefits when there is a balance. The interpretation of the results obtained in the microbiology laboratory depends on the quality of the samples received, as well as the knowledge and experience of the microbiologist, with sample processing being a critical step for the accuracy of the results. 

The personnel of a Clinical Analysis and Microbiology Laboratory carry out a wide variety of tasks. This postgraduate certificate offers the specialist and advanced material to allow the student to be able to perform clinical and microbiological analysis of human biological samples and choose the appropriate techniques in order to obtain the correct microbiological diagnosis. In this way, it will also contribute to clinical diagnosis, acting under quality and safety standards, and will provide the highest quality care to the infectious patient. 

To achieve these objectives, the program focuses on pathogenic agents, studying the interaction between the infectious agent and the affected organism; highlighting the importance of bacterial, viral, mycotic and parasitic infections; as well as the tools that allow their diagnosis and main ways of treatment This is all fundamental knowledge for the training of Clinical Laboratory specialists. 

A compendium and deepening of knowledge that will lead you to excellence in your profession.

With this postgraduate certificate you will be able to combine high intensity training with your personal and professional life, achieving your goals in a simple and real way”

A highly skilled postgraduate certificate which will allow you to become a highly competent professional in a clinical analysis laboratory”

The teachers of this postgraduate certificate are professionals currently working in a modern and accredited Clinical Laboratory, with a very solid training base and up to date knowledge in both scientific and purely technical disciplines. 

In this way, we ensure that we provide you with the training update we are aiming for. A multidisciplinary team of professionals trained and experienced in different environments, who will cover the theoretical knowledge in an efficient way, but, above all, will put the practical knowledge derived from their own experience at the service of the postgraduate certificate: one of the differential qualities of this course. 

This mastery of the subject is complemented by the effectiveness of the methodology used in the design of this postgraduate certificate in Microbiology and Parasitology. Developed by a multidisciplinary team of 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. 

A program created and directed by active professionals who are experts in this field of work, which makes this course a unique opportunity for professional growth"
