Zedu Weekly Wrap – 23 May 2025

What a huge couple of weeks…

with non-stop ultrasound training and a TRUST course over the weekend. The TRUST crew was amazing, with people from all over the globe bringing their ideas, experience and knowledge making it a fantastic few days of learning.

The next scheduled date for TRUST at the ZeduHQ is 8-9 November. This is in time for the Melbourne Cup and spring carnival – so why not make a holiday trip to Melbourne for a once in a lifetime experience? Get planning now!

Be sure to check out the highlights from this week’s news 🚀✨

  • The Block it Like it’s Hot podcast on perioperative POCUS (23 May)
  • Jailyn Avila and Michael Prats talking AI (21 May)
  • Implementing ultrasound in emergency medical services: assessing physician proficiency and training requirements in SJTREM (20 May)

And don’t forget – if you are planning to use your CME for a ultrasound training and system bundle be sure to get in touch with Michael over the next week or so to get the ball rolling – time will soon be short 🙂

See you next week
