Registrations for the larger multi-group HL7 + DICOM training sessions on the weekend before UKIO in Liverpool are now open:
Fundamentals of Radiology I.T. (1 day training for newer PACS Team members, NQEs, students or those with an interest but limited experience): www.learnpacs.com
Intermediate HL7 + DICOM (2 days for PACS Managers / supplier staff / those with some experience), including the assessment: www.learnpacs.com/level2
These sessions are expected to include attendances by the national training leads for integration, testing, patient safety and clinical collaboration.
We are also running Level 3 (Advanced) sessions, but these are currently full.
There’s also sessions scheduled for almost every other weekend until August 2024, however all of those places are fully booked, particularly those in the North. Please join the waiting lists if you are only able to attend in the Scottish or Netherlands venues as this helps us plan for demand in the autumn.
As always the training is run on a non-profit basis. Private and supplier staff remain welcome though (so everyone is on the same page!).
As a result of reaching capacity in all the venues we can’t offer any further places in the larger public training sessions being held over the UKIO weekend next month.
Sign-ups have now been closed for these - if you were awaiting a place please join the waiting list or consider requesting a dedicated session local to your Trust or region if there are a few of you looking to attend.
All other public sessions scheduled this year (up to October 2024) are also fully booked at present, but those on the waiting lists will be notified if any cancellations or extra places become available on the Glasgow, Aberdeen, Manchester, Belfast, Devon, Jersey or Netherlands dates in the meantime.
I just wanted to double check that the course for Fundamentals of Radiology IT in Liverpool was fully booked? If so, could we have 2 members of staff added to the waiting list please. We had been waiting on the training team to approve our request but looks like we may have missed out.
Alexander, we are desperate for spaces on the training here and are willing to take any date you have left this year even if not in Scotland. We were aiming to attend the summer Glasgow session in August but were also waiting on funding and now see that all 50 places there have filled.
