    28. Satellite meetings Techno-College Wednesday morning program E3 Expand your skills Enlarge your vision Embrace the future

    29. Wednesday Morning E3 Rationales: Decreasing attendance of last half day on Wednesday Insufficient hand’s-on-training (HOT) Inefficiently used on-site industrial resources Enhance introduction of novel technologies ”by familiarizing via hand’s on training, interactive video sessions “Sensational” effect of Techno-College from live transmissions with passive participant role and low educational or training value

    30. Goals Wednesday Morning E3 Increased motivation to attend the Wednesday session by increase “return of time investment” by interest oriented HOT sessions Allow for specific pre-booked HOT sessions (increased interests) Improve Cross-linking and expand network between surgical colleagues and MeDTech Industry (MDTI) staff Use present MDTI resources (on-site material and personnel) and combine education, training and networking to set the stage for follow-up in depth-trainings Present improved techniques with pre-existing devices Bringing practical aspects to the session presented in the Techno College and closing the meeting

    31. Wednesday morning E3 Focus on relatively new devices, techniques or technologies Participants needs to be pre-booked to optimize logistics The matrix is maintained - all activities are split in the four domains adult, cong., vascular, thorax The domain chairs are in charge of organizing the topic of interest that will be discussed and then followed by the Video and skill session. Domain chairs will help to define the discussants on the defined topic as well as video presenters and skill demonstrators (favouring younger colleagues for all skill task) The discussion will provide the necessary theoretical background to motivate the following HOT sessions

    32. European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery This work of the Association in the field of education would be impossible without your generous support. EACTS Council on behalf of the members expresses their gratitude and appreciation for your continued support.
