Education for ART Laboratory Professionals
Stay at the forefront of the field and elevate your ART laboratory skills with offerings from ASRM Academy, including the Embryology and Andrology Certificate Courses and the new Embryo Data Grading & Evaluation (EDGE) tool for advanced evaluation and grading of embryos.
With a common knowledge set appropriate for a broad range of healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of infertility, our courses provide comprehensive training in assessing the parameters of gametes and embryos, laboratory technologies, laboratory management, and male reproductive function. The Embryology Certificate Course focuses on identifying strategies to improve the IVF laboratory, while our Andrology Certificate Course helps clinicians optimize treatment for male infertility.
Education for Laboratory Professionals
Embryology Certificate Course
The Embryology Certificate Course provides a common knowledge set appropriate for the broad range of health care professionals involved in the treatment of the infertile couple that proceeds to ART, provides training in the assessment of parameters of gametes and embryos, laboratory technologies, and laboratory management as well as assists embryologists in identifying strategies for improving the IVF laboratory.
ASRM Clinical Embryology Learning Laboratory (“CELL”)
The ASRM Clinical Embryology Learning Laboratory (CELL) is a tuition-based initiative designed to address the critical need for standardized training in human IVF laboratories across the United States. CELL’s first course provides 8 weeks of immersive, hands-on laboratory experience complemented by in-depth content knowledge. Taught by leaders in the field, the course prepares participants to perform essential techniques independently and sets a foundation for future leadership roles in embryology.
Andrology Certificate Course
The Andrology Certificate Course provides a common knowledge set appropriate for the broad range of health care professionals involved in the treatment of the infertile male, provides training in the assessment of parameters of male reproductive function, and assists clinicians in identifying strategies for the treatment of male infertility.
