e-LA is an interactive and engaging web-based learning resource developed by the Royal College of Anaesthetists in partnership with e-Learning for Healthcare (e-LfH).
Written and edited by anaesthetists, e-LA covers the knowledge and key concepts that underpin the anaesthetic curriculum helping trainees to prepare for the FRCA examinations and supporting appraisal and revalidation of career grade anaesthetists.
The learning material is presented as a structured series of over 800 bite-sized e-Learning sessions with additional access to an extensive e-Library of articles and interactive MCQ sessions, mapped to the anaesthetic curriculum, to support continued professional development in anaesthesia.
Modules 1 to 7 are mapped to the Core Training Curriculum as detailed below.
