F-MARC, the FIFA Medical Association and Research Centre, have recently launched a free online diploma primarily for doctors and other health practitioners who have little or no sports medicine knowledge or experience. There is, however, material that will appeal to anyone with an interest in sports medicine. There are currently 20 modules, which will expand to 42 by the end of the year and completion will lead to being awarded the diploma. Steffan Griffin talks to Dr Mark Fulcher, a sport and exercise medicine physician at the FIFA Medical Centre of Excellence in Auckland, New Zealand. The online diploma is FREE to do and can be accessed here: http://f-marc.com/footballdiploma/ Timeline: 0-1.42 What is the diploma? 1.42-3.00 People involved in creating the content. 3.00-3.56-How the website can be used by different specialties. 3.56-4.20 Development and evolution of the diploma. 4.20-6.55 A little bit about Dr Fulcher and his work.
