March 2023 saw the inauguration of our advanced level Data Course with 14 participants from 8 countries. Building on the foundations of our entry level course and following the same format of self-directed learning combined with virtual seminars, the course focuses on skills and knowledge in Excel based data capture and submission. Since ANARA is never primarily about “how” but always about “why”, course objectives also included to explore what registry data tell us about how we practice ART and where we can improve; and to listen to special and important stories captured in direct conversation with those who have important stories to tell and from whom we can learn. We congratulate the 31 biologists, fertility nurses, scientists and clinicians from 8 countries who have obtained the Certificate of ANARA Data Manager Level 1 and/or Level 2 since we launched the 1st basic course in November 2021.
