Ethics

This unique course emphasizes learning-by-doing with a practical and clinically based focus. Its learner-centred model enables sessions to be customized to individual needs for those who want more background and skills in clinical ethics. The course is a series of online recorded sessions followed by two face-to-face group discussions based on practical cases related to the issues and topics of the recorded sessions. Each recorded session focuses on core aspects of clinical healthcare ethics. Participants need to watch the recorded sessions before the face-to-face sessions discussions in order to be prepared for the group discussions. This course will be taught in Portuguese.
