Education

Significant progress is being made in our understanding, diagnosis and management of neuromuscular diseases. There is a need to ensure that clinicians and other healthcare providers around the world involved in diagnosing, managing, treating and caring for patients living with neuromuscular diseases have access to information on the latest recommended practice and development, training and education.

The growing demand for education in the neuromuscular field led to the formation of the TREAT-NMD Education Committee (TEC) who facilitate and provide a range of specialist educational masterclasses and a number of other education initiatives including our e-learning platform. While the focus of our education programme is on health care professionals, the TEC aspires to educate all stakeholders involved in the management and therapeutic development of NMD patients, including patients and families, industry colleagues and regulators.

Established in 2018, the TREAT-NMD Education Committee (TEC) is a board of experts (academics and patient representatives) who are affiliated with TREAT-NMD and have an interest in the education events and materials that TREAT-NMD produces. This group has responsibility for overseeing the quality, independence and appropriateness of all educational materials and activities created by, linked to or endorsed by TREAT-NMD.
