SCCT Global Committees
SCCT Global Committees 

Global health. Global community.

The Global Committees (GC) program aims to strengthen cardiovascular CT education and SCCT membership globally by establishing Global Committees in countries and regions and providing a framework for support, regular communications and knowledge-sharing.

Global Committee goals

  1. To help SCCT increase and sustain membership locally to at least fifty (50) SCCT members.
  2. To develop and execute training and educational activities, especially in local languages, that complement offerings by SCCT.
  3. To share with SCCT leadership information about national society activities, local health policy challenges and major research efforts in order to identify potential areas for support and collaboration.
