e-Learning Anaesthesia (e-LA)

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 and will help trainees prepare for the FRCA examination. The learning material is presented as a structured series of bite-sized lessons and includes access to an extensive e-Library, a self-assessment area, and e-CPD to support continued professional development in anaesthesia.
