Assalamualaikum and good morning everyone,

Welcome to the National Heart Association Fellows Course 2026 here at HCTM/UKM. Over the next two days, this hall will be your training ground—where knowledge meets practice, and where future leaders of cardiology sharpen their edge.

Day 1 is all about updates—making sure you are in tune with the latest cardiology guidelines. Day 2 is about exams—practical bedside tips and strategies to conquer the MCQs.

We are privileged to learn from true sifus—experts from our universities, KKM, and IJN—who have walked this path before you and are here to guide you.

To the fellows and medical officers preparing for Masters and MRCP: this is your chance to ask, absorb, and apply. Make the most of it—because what you gain here will carry you far beyond these two days.

So let’s dive in, stay curious, and keep the spirit of learning alive. Welcome once again, and let’s have a great course together
