What is ECHO?
ECHO Epilepsy is a CPD-accredited program providing evidence-based, primarily virtual education programs. Through education, we support the delivery of equitable and effective care for children, adolescents and adults living with epilepsy. Sessions include didactic presentations and case-based learning. In addition, a few times a year, ECHO Epilepsy is fortunate to bring practitioners together in-person to make connections, learn together and build community.
