Applied Venous Disease & Program Building for Allied Health Professionals
This program is designed for allied health professionals who are involved in venous care pathways. The program provides a comprehensive introduction to venous disease, covering foundational concepts through to clinical applications. Content includes anatomy and pathophysiology, imaging fundamentals, workflow integration, and practical considerations for supporting a venous program.
The program is delivered over six months through weekly live webinars accompanied by short answer self-assessments to reinforce learning. The course uses a curriculum that progresses from basic to clinical topics, incorporating case-based learning and imaging-focused sessions. Participants will receive guidance on how to set up and support a venous program, including best practices in patient selection, coordination, and management. Educational methods will include interactive lectures, multidisciplinary discussions, self-assessments, oral presentations, and mentorship from experienced faculty to ensure knowledge translation into clinical and operational practice. An exclusive alumni discussion forum will support ongoing mentorship, case sharing, and practice integration after program completion.

Advanced Venous Disease Program for Neurovascular Clinicians
This program is an advanced, multi-modal training course designed for neurosurgeons, interventional neuroradiologists, and interventional neurologists seeking comprehensive education in venous disorders. The curriculum covers the full spectrum of venous pathology, including anatomy, embryology, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, imaging interpretation, patient selection, procedural decision-making, surgical treatments, and peri-procedural management. Participants will also explore emerging evidence, challenging cases, and evolving techniques in neurovascular venous intervention.
The program is delivered over eight months, 3-4 hours weekly through scheduled live webinars, interactive case discussions, and assignments to reinforce learning. Participants will apply concepts through imaging review sessions, clinical decision-making exercises, and faculty-led case-based evaluations. The program culminates in a 3 day in-person observership at St. Michael’s Hospital, where learners will directly observe venous procedures, multidisciplinary rounds, and real-world patient management. An exclusive alumni discussion forum will support ongoing mentorship, case sharing, and practice integration after program completion.
This activity is designed to provide a rigorous, immersive, and practice-transforming learning experience for physicians seeking to establish or advance expertise in venous disorders and neurovascular intervention.
