Course Description

The Advanced Certificate in Internal Medicine, a step-up program, is intended for healthcare professionals who wish to gain a high level of proficiency in the diagnostics, therapeutics, and care of patients with multiple, complex, and chronic diseases.

Internal Medicine specialists are committed to providing high-quality primary medical and hospital care to adults and geriatric patients. Internists remain the primary point of contact for patients with multiple, chronic, and complex conditions that require accurate and effective therapeutic regimens to bring about a positive treatment outcome. In this era of specialization, patients are forced to visit multiple specialists for proper medical treatment. At times, such patients fail to obtain optimal treatment, eventually leading to a deterioration of their overall health. An internal medicine specialist can treat diseases comprehensively due to their knowledge of the pathologies of multiple systems.

The Advanced Certificate in Internal Medicine is a self-paced training program consisting of multiple case presentations, video lectures, and assessments, enabling you to upskill yourself while managing your clinical responsibilities.

This course delivers 8 modules that culminate in nearly 45 hours of learning in 3 months, the course covers core competencies such as:

  • The strategic approach to patients with gastrointestinal and endocrine pathologies with a myriad of presentations
  • A better understanding of respiratory disorders, genitourinary and chronic kidney disease, etc., and their management.
  • Case presentations of various conditions and disorders and their management as per the latest guidelines.
  • Comprehensive and integrated care specific to the female gender, adult, and geriatric patients.

Learning complex medical concepts in the traditional didactic textbook and lecture format can be alienating for students. It prevents the opportunity to apply this knowledge clinically.

Advanced Certificate Course in Internal Medicine incorporates a Case-Based Learning Approach within the Medvarsity Learning Framework to address this gap in medical education. With this unique methodology, students consume relevant medical content while learning concepts through interactive case studies spread throughout the course. Thus, students are provided with relevant specialty-specific cases and a clear structure for precise diagnosis and customized treatment plans on a case-to-case basis.

Additionally, we’ve partnered with McGraw Hill to ensure that the students are exposed to relevant and credible content with the latest advances in the course specialty through a variety of case studies, books, videos, and other learning materials. This is the future of online education, especially for healthcare professionals.

We at Medvarsity help every physician with the ability to fast-track their career and enable them to serve the communities better in which they practice. Join us and let us impact healthcare through education.
