Development of the Contents of undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate programs

MEDGEN has finalized the content development of each program by using a specially developed methodology to organize a comprehensive work of analysis and design modules/programs. Prior to the education program design and development, the program curriculum team from each university worked on the set of standards around which the programs were written in terms of purpose, content, and organization. The program contents were developed in a module-by-module manner and reviewed, analyzed, and appraised for quality assurance by EU partners. The contents outline concepts aligned to national standards and requirements and related to the developed broad learning outcomes and objectives specific for each module associated with theoretical knowledge, clinical skills, attitudes, and behaviors which will enable the graduates/trainees to provide unsupervised comprehensive medical care in clinical genetics or in genetic counselling at the completion of the corresponding program. The program modules have three main components, namely theoretical studies, clinical/laboratory training, and supervised research. The proposed content of each program developed by partner country universities and revised by EU universities was discussed in detail during the second meeting in Charles University of Prague (March 2015) specially devoted to this issues.
