Adelphi Lifelong Learning combines deep medical knowledge with a unique software system to produce continuing medical education (CME) via case histories, delivered via the internet.

An example of this is the European Society of Cardiology's Educational website (ESCed). ESCed is the only system that delivers accredited online CME to doctors across Europe. It is one of the ESC's leading educational services, with over 8000 registered users. ESCed contains case histories in numerous areas of cardiology, based on the ESC's Core Syllabus, which itself was developed by collaboration between Adelphi Lifelong Learning and the ESC.

Early development of ESCed was supported by the European Commission 'Leonardo da Vinci' Programme. It was selected as one of the top 30 flagship projects of the thousands supported by this programme, and was showcased at a major meeting of the Commission in Maastricht in December 2004. To view ESCed, go to: www.esced.org and click on ‘I would like to register’.

Adelphi Lifelong Learning has also developed highly successful interactive case histories in chronic pain management and is aiming to develop educational websites in other areas of medicine, including oncology and respiratory medicine.

In addition to this, they are able to integrate case histories across a whole range of media from meetings and workmats to the internet in order to facilitate improvements in clinical practice and disease outcomes. Adelphi Lifelong Learning can also develop versions of their software for educational activities and training of representatives.
