Education Courses
have been arranged by NFS annually since 2014. Initially the course was given in Copenhagen covering all of the ESHRE curriculum. Thereafter one third of the content has been included in a shorter annual course. After participating in all three courses all of the curriculum has been covered.
The Education Course is also of interest for physicians who might subspecialize in Assisted Reproduction. The complete program gives an overview of reproductive medicine.
