Composition
The committee has a maximum of ten members including the chair. The term of service is three years. Members can self nominate for a second term. Decision is made by the ECNP Executive Committee.
Tasks
The tasks of an Educational Committee member include:
- Oversight of ECNP’s digital educational activities
The committee advises the Executive Committee on implementing ECNP’s digital educational mission. This includes refining the overall strategy, ensuring the use of state-of-the-art tools and designing effective programmes being disseminated through the ECNP Knowledge Hub. - Development of the ECNP Congress Educational Update Sessions
The committee contributes to the Congress programme for the Educational Update Sessions held during the ECNP Congress. These sessions focus on clinical practice and are designed to be interactive, using a Q&A system through the congress app to encourage dialogue between participants and presenters.
The chair of the Educational Committee serves on the Scientific Programme Committee (SPC) of the ECNP Congress.
Time commitment
The Educational Committee meets at least three times per year. One in-person meeting takes place during the ECNP Congress to evaluate the Educational Update Sessions and discuss future topics and the digital education strategy. Additionally, the Committee holds two video calls annually to review new course proposals for the Knowledge Hub and to finalise congress session content for submission to the Scientific Programme Committee (SPC).
Between meetings, members are regularly consulted for feedback and may be asked to provide input via email. Full participation in all meetings and calls is expected. ECNP covers travel expenses and one night of accommodation for members attending the Congress.
