With the success of our inaugural Board Review Course in 2010 and the rapid evolution of endovascular therapies for vascular disease, VIVA is proud to continue our formal collaboration with the Society for Vascular Medicine (SVM) with an expanded and improved VIVA/SVM Board Review Course (VEBRC). We have enhanced the course by adding an additional full day to the agenda and including both vascular and endovascular components. We will also be introducing Laptop Learning™, allowing attendees to take notes, download material, and follow along via a conference-provided laptop. In addition, for those interested in sitting for the American Board of Vascular Medicine board certification examination, we will be offering a sample test on Sunday afternoon with review of answers on Monday morning. In the spirit of providing the highest levels of education and science, the VEBRC offers everything the participant will need in one location with a dedicated faculty and a truly state-of-the-art review course.
This course is two full days, beginning at 1:00 pm on Saturday, October 15 and ending at 12 noon on Monday, October 17, 2011. A world-renowned faculty has once again been selected for their ability to convey the current critical components required for successful completion of the board certification examination. In addition, the faculty will remain available throughout the course to answer individual questions.
The best news? Once you have completed this one-of-a-kind course, stay for VIVA 11 and receive a special discount! There is no better way to solidify your ability to provide the highest quality vascular care for your patients than to attend the VEBRC and VIVA 11—The National Education Course in Vascular Medicine and Intervention!
