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

The teachers of this course 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 deliver the educational 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 course: one of the differential qualities of this course.

This mastery of the subject is complemented by the effectiveness of the methodological design of this postgraduate certificate in Instrumental Techniques in the Clinical Analysis Laboratory. Developed by a multidisciplinary team of 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. 

The learning in this postgraduate certificate is developed through the most performed didactic methods in online teaching to guarantee that your efforts produce the best results possible"

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”

The objective of this training is to offer professionals who work in clinical analysis laboratories, the necessary knowledge and skills to perform their duties using the most advanced protocols and techniques of the moment. Through a study plan totally adapted to the student, this postgraduate certificate will progressively allow you to acquire the skills that will push you towards a much higher professional level.
