Education Committee
What we do
The Education Committee (EC) promotes excellence in education for hematologists and related healthcare professionals—across Europe and beyond.
We do this by offering high quality learning programs:
- Online
- Via in-person meetings
- Via blended methods
The main aim of all our programs, activities, and actions is to harmonize hematology education.
The EC serves as an advisory body to the EHA Board and works closely with the EHA Office and other EHA committees.
