“Successful leaders see the opportunities in every difficulty rather than the difficulty in every opportunity.” – Reed Markham

An exciting blended learning programme designed for emergency physicians wanting to establish and build upon their leadership skills with a combination of educational methods.

On completion of the Programme, delegates will be provided with a Certificate of Completion of the European Lead EM Programme combining.

NOTE :

In order to be eligible for the face to face Pre-Congress workshop, delegates must have first completed the online set of 10 eModules on the EuSEM Academy website and attained the online certification. These eModules will provide the core knowledge required for the workshop. The workshop itself will be a set of simulated scenarios that will require active discussion and problem solving by the delegates.

10 online eModule lectures from expert international faculty with opportunity for reflection and further reading.

Innovative simulated scenarios and debriefing to reinforce key mental models for leadership development session will take place at the congress center on Saturday 12 October, 08:00 – 17:00 CEST and Sunday, 13 October, 08:00-13:00 CEST.

The objectives of this blended learning approach are to provide ;

1. An overview of the key models of leadership required for leading the Emergency Dept (ED) team
2. An understanding of the skills required to care for yourself and your team as well as leading on key aspects of healthcare change in the challenging environment of an emergency care system.

A learning development journey with online lectures, supported by a full 1.5 day workshop that will explore and solve real world ED problems with a highly experienced international Faculty.

Development of leadership skills are a vital component of being an excellent emergency physician. Over the past 3-4 years EuSEM  has run a number of ad hoc pre-conference study days to allow delegate at conferences to attend and have face to face teaching on some of the core principles in leadership and management. There is no structured programme that links to the key domains of leadership development for emergency physicians in Europe.

Over the 2 years members of the EuSEM ProCom have had discussions as a group and also with a number of parties to explore how we might best develop a more integrated blended learning programme to support leadership development in Emergency Medicine. We have developed and delivered a first blended learning programme in 2022 and 2023 with a combination of web. Lectures and face to face courses in Berlin & Barcelona.

The feedback from participants and Faculty has been excellent and we wish to continue this broad format.

Guidance on ways in which to enhance the Program have been that it would benefit greatly from expanding the face to face component to 1.5 days.

We wish to continue this successful format and also engage with national Societies better to be able to increase the number of participants to complete the online course as well as attending the face to face teaching.

The European Leadership for Emergency Medicine (Lead EM) Programme will combine :

• Online lectures and further reading materials
• A full face-to-face workshop with an international faculty to discuss and manage real world problems.

Whether you are a senior trainee, a new Consultant/ Attending emergency physician or an established Head of Service we believe you will find this a valuable, stimulating and enjoyable experience – so join us.

Please note, places are limited to 40 delegates for this Programme.

Reading materials will be provided as part of the web based lecture phase of the programme.

Further reading materials and answers to the simulated scenarios will be provided at the end of the Course.
