The European School of Urology (ESU) offers 18 free e-courses dedicated to understanding the EAU Guidelines. Every year, when the new edition of the EAU Guidelines is released, renowned experts meticulously select vital points in the new Guidelines and use this content as the learning material in the ESU e-courses. These courses are perfect for you if you want to bring your knowledge on a certain topic up-to-date, and at the same time, you can receive European CME credits (ECMEC®). They are also ideal training materials if you are preparing for the EBU exams or other tests. Through these e-courses, the ESU provides urologists and residents with essential and contemporary information on a global scale.
The e-courses are available in English and each e-course will take approximately 60 to 90 minutes for you to complete. It is mandatory that you answer the questions in the final assessment. A passing grade of 80% and above will guarantee you a Certificate of Attendance and CME credit(s).
You can stop anytime during the course if needed. To pick up where you left off, simply log in again to proceed with the remaining questions.
