The training day was brilliant and a lot of fun. The teaching was very high quality — the opportunity to be taught by experienced clinicians in small groups was invaluable. I learnt a huge amount and would highly recommend this to anyone considering a career in critical care.
Really good, informative course pitched at the perfect level for foundation trainees. I genuinely feel that I have learnt a lot about basic principles of critical care, which can be difficult to pick up on shift when it's busy.
Well pitched for a CT1 in anaesthetics — the small-group format worked well with a good mixture of topics. I'm feeling more confident about starting my ICM module.
