FOR INFORMATION: details about the 2 successful training courses in the EPNS three year training scheme:

24-25 March 2022 Acute Paediatric Neurological Diseases course moderated by Professor Maja Steinlin

accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME®) with 12 European CME credits (ECMEC®s).

30-31 March 2022 Immune Mediated Diseases and Infections course moderated by Professor Banu Anlar and Professor Kevin Rostasy

General information: The EPNS has been organising training courses in paediatric neurology since 2003 specifically aiming at trainees but also at qualified paediatric neurologists who want to refresh their knowledge on certain topics. The aim is to cover most main topics in the syllabus over a three-year cycle and to promote contact between individuals in the speciality in different parts of the world. The 2021-2023 cycle of training courses is taking place in Jurmala, Latvia, however in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic after careful consideration the decision has been taken to transition the EPNS Jurmala Training Course 2022 to a fully virtual event. With excellent feedback, participants experienced the same level of expert training which they have come to expect but from the safety and convenience of a remote working location.

Participants had to be EPNS members who had paid their 2022 annual membership fee to attend these training courses.
