Learning Resources & Webinars

Education is one of Urolink's stated aims. Electronic communication has made the bi-directional sharing of educational resources much easier.

This page seeks to help provide material from webinars and other open access sources that may be helpful wherever, and whenever, anyone has the time to access it.

Scheduled Webinars

Mike Ng from Exeter (UK) initiated a series of educational tutorial webinars with Urolink Executive member Nick Campain during the first lockdown in 2020. Initially, these took place between various UK training sites and the University Teaching Hospital (UTH) Lusaka. Wider involvement evolved in series 2 of this initiative and this has become a pan-African exercise in series 3, which is hosted by Charlie Stewart (clinical fellow in Exeter). Each session consists of a 20 minute presentation, followed by 10 minutes of discussion, about a case from both the UK and sub-Saharan Africa. Recordings of topics that have already been covered can be viewed using the Vimeo links in the Webinar Archive below. Each Webinar is about an hour long.

It is really important that we gain feedback from all broadcasts, live or recorded, so please complete the questionnaire about the Webinar after you have been involved with it.

PLEASE NOTE: these are tutorial presentations that are trainee-led with senior moderation; their focus is on discussing approaches to managing clinical scenarios in differing healthcare settings

For those of you who haven't been involved with a Zoom webinar previously, you may find the User Guide helpful to navigate your way around Zoom's common functions. Any problems then please email Charlie Stewart.
