Module 2

Rules and Regulations

Thank you for your interest in IBUS Module 2. Below you will find the rules and regulations that must be followed during the application process and your participation. Please read these rules and regulations thoroughly to understand the entire process of Module 2.

 

Eligibility:

To be able to apply, trainees must have completed Module 1, and have access to an ultrasound machine available at their hospital; for this reason, trainees must submit an image of a bowel segment from their machine with the application.

In addition to their CV, trainees will be asked to submit a letter of recommendation from their department head stating that they will have protected time to perform Intestinal Ultrasound in IBD patients as well as access to an ultrasound machine.

 

Application process:

Only applications sent via the IBUS website will be considered for Module 2 training.

During the application process please be patient with the IBUS office staff. The office will reach out to participants once they have had contact with their desired training locations. The process for placement can take up to a month or longer. The IBUS office will try its best to place you within your desired time frame and top three locations. Please note that this is not always possible. IBUS Training centers with high demand are more difficult to place participants and can fill up months in advance. IBUS Module 2 training is only confirmed once the participant and training center receive the confirmation letter.

From August 1st, 2024, the IBUS office will charge a one-off administration fee of 250€ + 19% VAT for the organization of the placement and access to the online logbook.

All costs (travel, accommodation, subsistence, insurance, etc.) related to the Module 2 placement must be covered by the trainee. The IBUS office does not facilitate visas, travel to centers, hotel stays, or paperwork depending on hospitals. A valid medical license is necessary. Additional requirements may apply depending on the selected training center.

 

Requirements for Completion:

Participants will have only completed module 2 training once they have had at least 40 real-life scans AND 4 weeks of training at an IBUS-certified training center. If a tutor believes that a trainee does not need additional training, they can reach out to the office with a formal request. The office will then send all requests to EduCom, this will have to be signed off by the educational committee and not the training center.
