Adult HERMES

The Adult HERMES Task Force is working on the accreditation phase whereby a series of recommendations will be given. Training centres can aspire to be recognised as European training centres by the ERS in the frame of the HERMES initiative. This Task Force has published its European consensus-based syllabus in 2006 and curriculum in 2008. The HERMES booklet of "European Standards for Training in Adult Respiratory Medicine: Syllabus, Curriculum and Diploma" is now available. This is a compendium of the documents produced from the wide-ranging consensus processes. This booklet contains the syllabus, the curriculum, the examination as well as the editorials regarding HERMES. Order this unique reference of medical education. Click here.

The Adult HERMES Task Force has paved the way for other HERMES initiatives across respiratory medicine specialties. It has become a model for its wide-ranging consensus process involving experts, academicians, practitioners, educators and trainees.

Paediatric HERMES

As one of the most successful offshoots of the HERMES initiative, the Paediatric HERMES continues in its fast paced developments. The Paediatric Respiratory Medicine European consensus-based syllabus was published in March 2009. Curriculum development is nearing completion and will be a dynamic document which will operationalise the syllabus and seeks to standardise training in the field. The Task Force has began groundwork on the European Examination in Paediatric Respiratory Medicine. Keep updated with the Task Force's developments Click here.

ESDL

The European Spirometry certification program will give recommendations at a European level which will constitute the basis for an "ESDL", a European Spirometry Driving License. This Task Force following the HERMES initiative seeks to review and give recommendations on spirometry training across Europe. Click here.
