Cardiology across continents: an interactive, case-based learning series

Heart University [https://www.heartuniversity.org/] is a free educational website providing structured training curricula with knowledge-based testing and access to webinars and conference recordings for practicing and in-training providers of paediatric and congenital cardiac care. To date, there are over 15,000 registered website users from over 140 countries on Heart University, with over 2,000 training modules and/or recorded educational videos. Heart University has developed an "asynchronous" educational lecture series entitled "Pediatric and Congenital Cardiac Care in Resource-Limited Settings." This recorded lecture series is specifically focused on topics relevant to practicing paediatric and/or congenital cardiac care in low-resource settings.A relatively new initiative, "Cardiology Across Continents," supplements the existing educational resources for providers of paediatric and/or congenital cardiac care in low-income countries and lower-middle-income countries by providing an additional live, interactive, case-based forum. Sessions occur every 1-2 months and focus on challenging cases from diagnostic or management perspective with a view to promote collaboration between partnered institutions. "Cardiology Across Continents" is an expanding initiative that facilitates learning and collaboration between clinicians across varied practice settings via interactive case discussions. We welcome trainees and providers of paediatric and congenital cardiac care to join the sessions and invite any insight that can enhance learning for clinicians around the world. This manuscript describes "Cardiology Across Continents" and discusses the development, history, current status, and future plans of Heart University.
