Parkinson's Advanced 3: on-demand
This is a fully virtual course comprising 2 modules. Delegates will be able to access sessions, presentation slides and other resources for 12 months after payment (and after the launch of module 2).
We value in-person learning but recognise that this can be a barrier to education, particularly if you're overseas or have caring responsibilities. Our Parkinson's Advanced MasterClass on-demand brings you all the exceptional content and delivery of our in-person courses from the same passionate expert speakers - all available virtually.
Wherever you are in the world, whatever your role, whatever the service style you are part of, this course will equip you with the knowledge you need to confidently meet the needs of those living with Parkinson's in your care.
The Parkinson's Advanced MasterClass on demand is specifically designed to further the knowledge and skillset of those who already have an understanding of Parkinson's diagnosis, treatment and management. Constantly updated to provide engaging teaching encompassing the latest research, policy and best practice, this practical, in-depth and case-based learning will move participants from 'knowledgeable' to 'expert'.
Who is this course for?
This on-demand course is particularly intended to give opportunities for learning to those who can't access our in-person courses, whether due to working overseas or caring responsibilities.
The Advanced MasterClass is designed for consultants in elderly medicine, neurology or old age psychiatry, final year registrars, experienced Parkinson’s nurses, GPwERs, experienced neurosciences pharmacists, associate specialists and staff grade physicians.
What will the course involve?
This fully virtual course comprises 2 on-demand modules delivered by practicing experts from across the spectrum of research, care and treatment required in optimal management of Parkinson's.
From setting up a service to utilising everyone in your team; improving diagnostic skills to managing neuropsychiatric issues; complex drugs management to inpatient care - this packed programme explores Parkinson's in all its variety and nuance. Digging into challenges and examining experiences through the core aspects of Parkinson's diagnosis, treatment and management, this course provides a very practical understanding of how to tailor provision to each individuals' needs.

'I think this was a fantastic course, well calibrated for online delivery. It gave a wide angle view of the challenges facing those looking after patients with PD. As a consultant geriatrician, I work with an MDT on a daily basis so hearing perspective from a wide range of contributors is priceless. I was unable to fit this course into my schedule as a final year registrar however now being on the other side so to speak as a consultant - this has been even more valuable to me.'
