Hi,

Within my MSc Project I am doing a research on the need of medical professionals to be highly competent in English (especially Medical English). For this purpose I would like you to help me get an insight into EMP courses organised abroad (I come from Croatia) to see how programmes are designed and what is it that medical doctors need to master in the first place.

I already administered questionnaires to see what MDs in my town Split, Croatia think about that, now I am interested in an international experience.

The other day I made an inquiry about the medical journals published in English. The British Library web site was useful, I downloaded all the journals, and selected the medical ones. I haven't counted them all yet, but there will be more than 1000 of them.

Do you mean courses organised in non-English speaking countries, jaro?

Well, actually, it does not matter. I am interested in EMP curriculum development so that all the information based on experience would be welcome.

The one that I found on the World Wide Web is Elanguest in Malta that headed the development of the EMP online course. jaro

Hello Jaro,

I don't know if you are still looking for information on this topic but the Vancouver Medical English Institute has a detailed curriculum on its website (http://medicalenglish.coursekey.com/) which may be of some help to you.

Regards,

Hello
 For health professionals who want to work in an English speaking country you may be interested to know about the UBELT exam which tests the competency of doctors dentists pharmacists etc.
