Just over a month ago, as countries around the world began locking down in response to the COVID-19 outbreak, ICCE Community Relations Manager, Cynthia Maeschalck and I, put out a post on Facebook offering an opportunity to meet and discuss Feedback-Informed Treatment and Deliberate Practice.   We were taken by surprise when the webinar filled to capacity in two hours!  Within a day, we announced a second, free webinar.  It, too, quickly filled.  Each time, we’ve covered a lot of ground and managed to met with colleagues from the U.S., Canada, Europe, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.  We meet for the third on Wednesday the 28th of April (sorry, it’s full to capacity).

Two weeks ago, the recording of the first meetup was released.  As promised, here’s the second.

Topics covered are listed below along with times when particular questions are addressed.

Click here if you missed my interview of the Chicago-based ICU physician on the front lines of the COVID-19 outbreak in Chicago.  It’s both informative and moving, including tips for anyone who faces difficult decisions regarding their health and well being.

Next week, two new interviews on deliberate practice.

Until then,
