ECHO Ontario: Epilepsy Across the Lifespan is a virtual community and case-based learning program, which endeavors to build a provincial network of community health care providers and epilepsy specialists at academic hospitals to enhance care for people living with epilepsy and their families. The live learning virtual program provides CME credits at no cost and can be accessed virtually – no need to travel. Sessions are 60 minutes and offered over the lunch hour for ease of participation.
