The BHS training course and seminars have been offered for many years to individuals interested in the practice of clinical and laboratory hematology. The aim of the course is to provide evidence-based theoretical teaching as well as practical information about the diagnosis and treatment of hematological disorders. The course is designed as a 2-year cycle including 6 or 7 seminars per year, covering each a major theme of hematology. Each seminar is divided into 5-6 topics related to the main theme.
