Introduction to the Program

Allergology is one of the most rapidly evolving specialties in recent years. Get up to date in the field in a quick and efficient way with this high-intensity educational course” 

##IMAGE##

Allergology has seen how, in recent years, the number of people affected by the different forms of manifestation of the disease has increased notably. In the last two decades, this increasing trend has been particularly noticeable among children. And yet, very few countries have specialized services in this medical field.

This prevalence has led to allergy being considered a major health problem: according to the WHO, hundreds of millions of people suffer from rhinitis, one of the most common allergy conditions, and at least 300 million suffer from asthma. In addition to these figures, there is an enormous variety of other common and new allergies that have become commonplace in the specialist's office.

This training program has been created with the aim of providing professionals with specific training in the field of allergology to equip them with the most up-to-date knowledge in diagnosis and intervention.

In this sense, the professional must be able to offer their patients a study of their disease in which the recognition of allergens is a priority in order to work towards a lifestyle that aims to avoid symptoms and, with them, the progression of the disease.

During this training, you will learn about new lines of research and practice in allergic disease with a special interest in areas such as asthma and diagnosis by inflammatory genotypes or measurements: induced sputum, flow cytometry, measurement of cytokines and interleukins.

A comprehensive refresher program that will also allow you to incorporate Big Data and telemedicine skills. Work routines that will provide you with a new spectrum of performance and permanent growth.

Get updated in one of the most in-demand specialties, with 30-40% of the world's population affected by allergies"

  • Communication with the teacher and individual reflection work
  • Availability of content from any fixed or portable device with internet connection
  • Supplementary documentation databases are permanently available, even after the course

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

Our teaching staff is composed of medical professionals, practising specialists. In this way we ensure that we deliver the educational update we are aiming for. A multidisciplinary team of doctors trained and experienced 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 this course: one of the differential qualities of this training.

This mastery of the subject is complemented by the effectiveness of the methodology used in the design of this course. Developed by a multidisciplinary team of e-learning experts, it integrates the latest advances in educational technology. In this way, you will be able to study with a range of easy-to-use and versatile multimedia tools that will give you the necessary skills you need for your specialization.

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.
