Event management company Millbrook Medical Conferences has added new conferences to the Millbrook Hub, a library of e-conferences and webinars for healthcare professionals, and is in the process of refreshing it to improve the user experience.

COVID-19 changed the conference and events landscape with many event organisers adopting a digital or hybrid format. In response to societal changes, Millbrook launched the Millbrook Hub in 2021, which is home to several e-conferences and webinars for medical professionals. Though, with COVID-19 restrictions lifted and minimal access to Cardiac Cath Labs following the pandemic, there is a real need for networking in-person and participating in demonstrations.

Staying true to its core principle of making medical education accessible to healthcare professionals, Millbrook records its in-person conferences and ensures a live stream is available when running hybrid events.

There are currently 28 e-conferences available to watch on the Millbrook Hub free-of-charge, wherever and whenever delegates desire, amounting to over 100 hours’ worth of medical education.

The number of e-conferences available on-demand will continue to grow as Millbrook Medical Conferences is booked up with in-person, virtual and hybrid meetings for the remainder of 2022 and has already begun to secure meetings for 2023.

The newest additions to the Millbrook Hub include B.R.A.I.N. (Barts Research and Advanced Interventional Neuroradiology) 2021, Chronic Total Occlusion: An introduction to CTO PCI, Lesion Preparation 2022 – the reality behind the technique, Mitral Leaflet Repair Webinar, Transcatheter Mitral 2022 and UK Update in CSP Pacing.

Highlights from Coronary Complications During PCI will be available to watch on the Hub soon.

Access to e-conferences on the Millbrook Hub is for registered persons only. To register for access, please click here and complete the form. Access is free to healthcare professionals only; the hub is not open to industry professionals.

If you have registered for a Millbrook e-conference in the past, you will automatically have access to the Hub using the same login details.

Features:

The Hub boasts a clean, simple and intuitive user interface for use anywhere. The menu on the left-hand side of the Hub is expandable and collapsible with clear messaging and icons that make it easy for users to navigate.

• To watch an e-conference, click the ‘On-Demand’ button.
• To keep up to date Millbrook’s activity on social media, click the ‘Millbrook Twitter’ button.
• To visit the Millbrook website, click the ‘Millbrook Medical Conferences’ button.
• For any queries, click the ‘Help Desk’ button to get in touch with the Millbrook team, or click the ‘FAQs’ button.

Once users have selected the conference they want to watch, an agenda becomes available to view. From there, the conference can be watched in full, or users can click on a specific session to watch within the agenda.

For professionals wanting to watch an e-conference, whilst working on a project a ‘Pop out Player’ option is available, giving users a minimised view of the video. Alternatively, when time is short, users can save sessions for later by clicking the ticketed star icon, which is situated next name of the session – on the right. Doing so will add that session to the users ‘personal agenda.’

To access your personal agenda, click your profile image in the top right corner. If an image hasn’t been uploaded by the user, this will show as their initials. Then click ‘My Schedule’ and this will bring up all the saved sessions.

When watching the e-conference, a ‘Chat’ and ‘Notes’ function is available which allows professionals to connect and share ideas while hearing from world-renowned experts in their respected field.

Stats:

The Millbrook Hub is proving to be a valuable platform amongst healthcare professionals. Recent statistics show that 1,117 healthcare professionals have logged into the Millbrook Hub since its launch last year. In that time, the Hub has received 106,936 page views and 165 personalised sessions. In addition, Millbrook’s e-conferences keep healthcare practitioners gripped with an average visit time of 71 minutes.

Millbrook is always looking for ways to improve the Hub and is working closely with CrowdComms, an event technology provider, to give it a new look and feel. The re-design is part of Millbrook’s plans to modernise the Hub and enhance the user experience and efficiency.
