The planning committee is delighted to offer the Second International Course on Child Abuse Paediatrics, Inter-CAP, in Amsterdam, 12-15 June 2017.

The new curriculum for 2017 has been revised based on evaluations provided by delegates and faculty of the first Inter-CAP conducted in Uppsala, Sweden in 2015. The four-day course will include a number of “hot topics” and advanced topics that will be of interest to delegates from Inter-CAP 2015.

Inter-CAP is designed for all health professionals who provide health care to children. A significant amount of content regarding many forms of child maltreatment and neglect is presented at the course.

All aspects of the clinical assessment and evaluation of physical, sexual, or emotional abuse, and neglect, will be covered. The teaching will be delivered by international leaders in the field, and will include didactic talks, workshops and small group discussions.

The four-day is designed to allow for discussion and collaboration on some of the most challenging issues faced by child abuse paediatricians and their medical colleagues, and there are plenty opportunities for networking along the continuum of experiences.

The course is endorsed by the Ray E. Helfer Society, and will cover all of the core competencies expected of health professionals in this field.
