Participants will learn from educational experts who have successfully implemented four-year longitudinal curricula to develop an understanding about what to teach, how to teach, assessment methods and where to seamlessly integrate ultrasound in line with Liaison Committee on Medical Education standards. Curriculum development and implementation will encompass all aspects of point-of-care ultrasound, from ultrasound applications in microgravity to undergraduate, graduate and global health applications.
