Purpose
Development of a distant learning solution which provides
the experts the opportunity to train their students.
Support trainees gain their endovascular clinical
competence.
Improvement of vascular clinician's knowledge.

Performance Metrics
The training applicationUser Groups
Experts in vascular medicine
Trainees Qualified vascular surgeons
Medical students
User groups
Expert in vascular medicine
Prepare educational, training content for their trainees.
TraineesComplete the scenarios in order to become more familiar with various cases and prepare themselves for making decisions for their patients.
Medical Students “Simple” scenarios help them to decide if the endovascular interventionalist competence is what they want to develop in their career.
Qualified vascular surgeons
Difficult patient cases included in the application will be useful for their continuing education.
The training applicatione-learning approach
The training application is:
inspired by the e-Learning paradigm,
realized as a Learning Content Management System
(LCMS), supporting: data creation, storage, retrieval, reuse,
delivery of content (data and scenarios ),
built on top of LAMS (for the implementation of the
training process).
The training applicatione-learning approach
The training application is:
based-upon the latest e-Learning standards such as IMS
Learning Design (LD) for the implementation of training
scenarios,
implemented using Java and Flash (for the system and user
interface respectively),
Web-based,
addressing different user types for different educational
objectives.

Conclusions
We presented a Web-based open source training application which
provides learners with unlimited access to training opportunities.
It promotes individual training exercises, facilitates self-paced practice
sessions, and captures case details for objective assessment.
It supports endovascular surgeons at their first steps in the specific
competence and their further on-the-job training.
By completing the scenarios they become more familiar with various cases
and prepare themselves for making decisions for their patients.
It supports trainees in improving their skills required for competence in
vascular medicine.
