11 Feb, 2022

We are delighted to announce that registrations are now open for our interactive training course ‘PentaTr@ining 2022: HIV & other Congenital Infections‘.

Building on the remarkable success of the previous online course in 2020/21, we have adapted our training content to deliver a cutting-edge training programme centered around updates in the management of paediatric HIV and a variety of different congenital infections. We have listened to participant feedback and carefully tailored the course to address the key issues that currently face paediatric infectious disease healthcare professionals and students.

The course is divided into two parts: in-depth online distance learning run over 3 months, later followed by a 3-day face-to-face workshop. The upgraded online course boasts a highly engaging design and user friendly interface, purposely designed to kindle engagement and encourage intercommunication among the participants and faculty team. The innovative online programme comprises 6 comprehensive and thought-provoking training modules, a variety of real life clinical cases for discussion, live webinars and dedicated tutoring from our expert trainers.

 

Modules covered:

  1. Preventing Vertical Transmission of HIV
  2. Congenital ‘SCORTCH’ Infections
  3. Children presenting with HIV
  4. Treating HIV in Children
  5. Complexities of HIV, Co-infections and Co-morbidities
  6. Adolescents, Sexual Health and ‘Living with HIV’

 

To complement the online training, our experienced international faculty will deliver a 3-day face-to-face training workshop on 28th-30th September 2022. The residential course embraces a true collegiate spirit, consisting of lectures, interactive working groups, real-life clinical case discussions and quizzes. The workshop is purposefully structured in a way that maximizes teacher/student interaction, encourages delegates to be proactive participants and consolidates the knowledge they will have acquired during the online component.

The course will be held at the historic venue of Pontificia Università Urbaniana, Rome (Italy).

The online course kicks off on 25th April 2022
