ESH-EHA Hematology Tutorials

Hematology Tutorials are annual courses aiming to provide laboratory and clinical hematologists with an integrated diagnostic and clinical work-up of hematological disorders. Initiated in 2004, with the support of the European Commission's Marie Curie Actions program, ESH-EHA Tutorials are based on technical and didactic innovation.

The scientific program takes the participants through the diagnostic and clinical pathway with plenary lectures, interactively conducted clinical case study sessions and self-assessment sessions. The faculty is available to provide individual guidance to the participants throughout the meeting. The scientific program is designed to encourage interaction between the faculty and the course participants. For technical reasons, attendance at each tutorial is limited to 100 participants.

Over the past four years, ESH-EHA Hematology Tutorials have become well-known in Europe. Several tutorials have also been jointly organized in Brazil, with the Brazilian School of Hematology. In future, the tutorials will continue to travel as invited by hematology organizations worldwide.

There are two types of Hematology Tutorials:
Type I Tutorials present new lectures, new clinical cases and new self assessment tests developed by the Tutorials’ Faculty and Chairs, whereas
Type II Tutorials which were developed as part of EHA’s outreach program, use new lectures but, previously presented clinical cases and self assessment tests. In the past two years this didactical model of courses has been successfully exported out of Europe and it will be exported in different European countries in the next years.
