“…The Working Group members and members of the Education and Outreach Committee were asked to identify existing curricula for hematology and thrombosis and hemostasis , which were reviewed and critiqued. Two major source documents were used: the ‘European Curriculum for Thrombosis and Haemostasis’ from the European Association for Haemophilia and Allied Disorders and the ‘SpR Competency Assessment: Training in Haemostasis and Thrombosis’ developed by the British Society on Haemostasis and Thrombosis .…”

The priority of ISTH was to establish a global core curriculum in thrombosis and hemostasis. International survey to determine competencies required for clinical specialists was carried out in the field. Competency framework provides a reference point for mapping and developing regional curricula. Core curriculum informs and links to a variety of ISTH educational materials. Summary BackgroundThe International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) identified the need for an international core curriculum on thrombosis and hemostasis for its society members and the larger thrombosis and hemostasis community. AimsThe current research sought consensus on the core competencies required by medical doctors who are ready to practise as independent clinical specialists in thrombosis and hemostasis with the aim of developing a core clinical curriculum for specialists in the field. MethodA draft list of competencies was developed by the Working Group and formed the basis of an online survey. ISTH members and the larger thrombosis and hemostasis community were asked to rate the importance of each competency, on a Likert scale, for clinical specialists in thrombosis and hemostasis. ResultsThere were a total of 644 responses to the online survey with broad geographical representation. There was general agreement on what level of competency would be required for clinical specialists in thrombosis and hemostasis at the specified level of training. ConclusionsUsing the survey to gain consensus on the level of competency required by clinical specialists in the field of thrombosis and hemostasis enabled the development of a core clinical curriculum that has been endorsed by the ISTH Council. The curriculum will offer a framework and international reference that will be used by the society, by national and regional organizations, and for further research.

“…This is in line with recommendations within the strategy for targeted education. 2 The newly defined competence levels enable hematologists to self-assess their knowledge and competences and subsequently compare their self-assessed levels to the recommended European levels. This facilitates the identification of gaps in knowledge, which can serve as the basis for identifying one's educational needs.…”

“…As already highlighted in previous articles, [1][2][3] successive European Commission educational grant support has created and consolidated a platform for harmonizing training and increasing the level of competence among young hematologists across Europe. This direction of travel began in 2002 with the European Council for Accreditation in Hematology (ECAH) project.…”

“…Morphological examination of blood or bone marrow smears, together with cytogenetics findings, usually confirms the suspected diagnosis. Nowadays, molecular identification of BCR-ABL gene fusion, Jak2 or calreticulin mutations can provide both the basis for the initiation of targeted therapy 3 and a means to follow minimal residual disease after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT), now considered for fit patients who had previously been considered "old" only on the basis of their age. 4 Although immunophenotypic anomalies have been reported in these diseases, they are of little interest in the current management of such patients.…”
