The comprehensive assessment of a child's stage of development is the everyday task of the paediatrician in hospital as well as in practice. For this reason, the Swiss Society of Paediatrics, in collaboration with the Swiss Society of Developmental Paediatrics and the directors of the A-clinics, has called for systematic training in the basics of child development.
In 2026, we will again be offering this systematic training in developmental paediatrics as part of a modular programme on the topics of growth and development, nutrition, motor skills, language, cognitive and play development, developmental diagnostics, school and socio-legal framework conditions, sleep, emotional development and adolescent medicine in cooperation with the University Children's Hospital Basel and the Children's Clinic of the Inselspital Bern.
Module 1 (10 January 2026, start 9 a.m., UKBB - Basel)
Module 2 (14 February 2026, start 9 a.m., Inselspital - Bern)
Module 3 (14 March 2026, start 9 am, UKBB - Basel)
Module 4 (5 September 2026, start 9 a.m., Inselspital - Bern)

The events take place take place on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 12.30 p.m. and from 1.30 p.m. to 5 p.m. and comprise 8 lessons.
These modules are offered annually so that everyone should have the opportunity to take part in all 5 modules during the course of paediatric specialist training. The modules do not build on each other, so that participation is possible in any order.
