11 Hours CME Online & In-House Face-2-Face
$680 Programme price (AUD Inc. GST)
Part 1: The Fundamentals of Safe Vacuum Delivery | Online
Part 2: The Vacca Steps Skills Workshop | F2F
The Vacca Steps Skills Training Programme is a comprehensive 2-part course running over 11 hours, designed to equip clinicians with the essential knowledge and hands-on skills to perform a safe vacuum-assisted delivery.
The programme is structured to build theoretical understanding and practical competence over two distinct courses, rather than a single workshop. Participants will develop practical skills using specialized medical manikins under the guidance of a VAD expert, enhancing delivery success and reducing risks for both mother and baby. Participants undergo a skills assessment at the end of the second course. Our low trainer-to-participant ratios ensure enhanced learning by providing dedicated One-to-One Practical Tuition time.
