Academics

Courses

Our structured programmes are created by the Academic Committee (ACE) and taught by the ESBICM faculty, who are working healthcare professionals themselves. Some courses lead to formal certification, and others are there to build clinical knowledge we can use every day.

THE ESSENTIALS

The shape of a course

This is how most of our programmes run. If a course is structured differently, you will find the details on its own page.

  • Who can enrol

    Courses are open to ESBICM members.

    Membership is free and granted after review, so join first and then enrol.

  • LIVE CLASSES, WITH RECORDINGS

    Sessions are taught live online, usually in the evening (IST).

    Recordings stay available to enrolled participants for the length of the course, so a night shift doesn't mean a missed class.

  • Examination and certificate

    Most courses end with an examination, and passing earns a Certificate of Completion.

    Some courses award a certificate without an examination, and some carry no certificate. Each course page says which applies, and every certificate can be verified publicly.

  • SITTING THE EXAMINATION

    Examinations are taken on a laptop or desktop computer.

    Phones and tablets are not supported, so please arrange a computer and a steady connection in advance.

  • Fees and payment

    Fees are in Indian rupees and are paid in your member panel.

    The ICU App does not take payments, but you can open the member panel in a mobile browser.

  • Language

    All teaching is in English.

    Sessions, course materials and examinations are all in English.

PAYMENTS

Where a course carries a fee, it can be paid only on this website, in your member panel.

The ICU App does not show course fees, nor does it take payments. If you are using the app on your phone, open a mobile browser, go to esbicm.org and sign in to your member panel to see the fee and pay there.
