The European Academy of Neurology is proud to announce the launch of the EAN Cost-Conscious Healthcare (CoCoCare) Project; our very own guideline educational programme for 2023!
Initiated by Prof. Marian Majoie (Maastricht University, Netherlands) as a project application for the Erasmus Grant in 2018, EAN was brought into the project as a part of the Consortium. The CoCoCare Consortium developed a comprehensive programme, which was successfully conducted in 2019 and 2020 in collaboration with the European Academy of Neurology. Now, CoCoCare continues as one of the projects of the EAN.
The CoCoCare project aims to teach 20 neurology residents and early career neurologists how to develop and implement high-quality, evidence-based guidelines. Ultimately, the aim is to increase the involvement of skilled graduates in the EAN’s guideline development.
The course will be structured as a highly integrated, international blended learning programme that combines e-learning, plenary discussions and workshops, self-study and practical training from an innovative holistic approach. The programme will take place over one year, starting with a Kick-off Workshop in Congress 2023 as well as a Poster Presentation and Culmination Activity in Congress 2024.
Clinical practice guidelines are a crucial tool for the neurological community, the development of which is a highly important function of the European Academy of Neurology. In order to sustainably develop high-quality guidelines, the EAN Guideline Production Group recognizes a need to support RRFS members of the EAN, who wish to boost their knowledge and skills in guideline development.
Applications are now open until March 19, 2023.
You can find more detailed information on the application procedure, eligibility, and the programme on our website.
