Course Description
The Advanced Certificate in Clinical Cardiology is a program specially designed for healthcare professionals seeking to enhance their knowledge and skills in the field of cardiology. Developed by renowned cardiologists, this course equips you with the necessary knowledge of common cardiovascular conditions, such as hypertension, stable ischemic heart disease, acute coronary syndromes, heart failure, and arrhythmias.
During the duration of the course, you will have access to a wide range of educational resources, including multiple case presentations, interactive lectures, and engaging learning activities. These dynamic elements create an active learning environment, enabling you to gain practical insights and apply your knowledge in real-world scenarios. Additionally, the course includes comprehensive training in resuscitation skills, covering both basic and advanced life support techniques.
We understand that traditional didactic approaches to medical education can be challenging and less engaging for students. Therefore, the Advanced Certificate in Clinical Cardiology adopts a case-based learning approach within the Medvarsity learning framework. This innovative methodology bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and clinical application. Through interactive case studies, you will analyze specialty-specific scenarios, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of cardiovascular medicine.
To enhance your learning experience, we have collaborated with Wolters Kluwer, a renowned publisher, to provide you with access to the latest advances in cardiovascular medicine. You will have access to a wealth of credible and relevant content, including case studies, books, videos, and other educational materials. This partnership ensures that you stay updated with the latest developments in the field and receive high-quality, evidence-based education.
The Advanced Certificate in Clinical Cardiology offered by Medvarsity is accredited by the Indian Association of Clinical Cardiologists (IACC) and the Apollo Hospitals Educational and Research Foundation (AHERF), two esteemed organizations dedicated to promoting excellence in cardiovascular care. Our alumni have successfully pursued careers in prestigious hospitals, including Apollo, Medanta, Billroth Hospitals, and Columbia Asia Hospitals.
This course equips you with advanced knowledge and skills in clinical cardiology, enabling you to collaborate effectively with other healthcare professionals in providing holistic patient care.
Join the Advanced Certificate in Clinical Cardiology and elevate your expertise in the fascinating field of cardiology, contributing to improved cardiovascular health outcomes for patients.

Accredited CPD Activity
Continuing professional development (CPD) is the intentional maintenance and development of the knowledge and skills needed to perform in a professional context. This could mean honing current skills, it could mean developing them to a new level, or it could mean learning new ones that will allow an employee’s job role to expand or prepare them for potential promotion.
CPD obligations are present in most professions. Most companies and organizations now prioritize them because they ensure a constantly developing workforce.
This means there are millions of professionals across the UK who are required to undertake CPD training every year.
Structured CPD gives employees a clear path to success within their current role and progression to future ones. Employees in regulated industries (e.g. healthcare, accountancy, legal work) can lose their license to operate if they don’t maintain their CPD.
CPD activities can range from formal educational activities such as instructor-led training courses, workshops or seminars, to more informal approaches such as work-based learning or mentoring. CPD can also include self-directed studies such as e-learning courses and structured reading.
CPD can be provided by specialist companies (e.g. commercial training providers, independent coaches), or provided internally, in particular by larger organizations.
