Online lectures, presentations, training on CPR+AED+other emergency scenarios both in adults and pediatric patients: Simulated based learning, mixed virtual reality (VR) for critical incidents, problem-based learning, crisis resource management (CRM), “pit crew attitude” and teamworking will be used as methodologies.

In one session innovative learning throughout virtual reality (immersive experience with VR-googles) will be used.

Pre and post tests and wrap-up sessions will be possible after a flipped learning and flipped teaching approach
