Reviews

Our alumni all have their individual journeys and challenges through this exam process. We have witnessed incredible journeys with unparalleled perseverance, hard work and dedication. These FACEMs serve as an inspiration to us all.

  • Advanced Centre for Emergency Education is the biggest reason I got through the fellowship exams. Dr Pandie teaches Emergency medicine for the consultant and in the depth expected to pass the exam (something we all know doesn’t happen in the ‘training’ positions we all work in).

  • A great course that prepares you for the written examination. It provides a structured approach whilst utilising high yield questions and content to mimic the real exam to help you succeed!

  • The team has vast knowledge in all things Emergency Medicine but also has experience in navigating the dreaded FACEM Fellowship exam.

  • The small group approach was very supportive and everyone has a chance to contribute. I’d highly recommend to anyone studying for the ACEM fellowship exam!

  • New FACEM NSW 2023.....

    I have been with the Advanced Centre for Emergency Education programme since 2020, several months prior to sitting my written fellowship, and then again throughout 2021/2022 prior to sitting my OSCE.

    I am very grateful for the programme as it not only provided a structure to progress through the vast amount of material to cover, but also identified knowledge gaps that may have otherwise been overlooked had I have been studying alone or relying on clinical work alone to fill.

    Dr Zaahid Pandie is an excellent tutor and mentor and has an impressive breadth of knowledge. He also understands the complexities of both examinations and helped prepare and support me through the entire process – from planning to content, resources and recommendations and tips and tricks to set me apart from other candidates and ensure that I am able to perform my best on exam day.

    The online resources provided include many hours of in depth but easy - listening discussion of previous examination topics, which I would frequently have on in the background while doing my day-to-day activities. The topics are clearly set out on an easy-to-follow online format and are regularly updated. This compendium will continue to grow and improve as future generations of trainees make their way through the programme, making it an invaluable resource for candidates at any stage of their examination journey.

    I have recommended the programme to many trainees, and I will continue to do so in the future.

  • “I’d recommend Advanced Centre for Emergency Education Pty Ltd to all ACEM trainees sitting their fellowship exams. ”

    The fellowship journey is a long and complex one; for which you really do need a guide that can show you where the expert knowledge lies, and more importantly how to answer it. Dr Pandie has for many years,  helped mentor, educate and support many many trainees through this process. Not only is he very knowledgeable, he is an enthusiastic educator and will really go out of his way to impart the level of knowledge required for the FACEM exam and future knowledge base as an ED Consultant.

  • “Zaahid is an avid teacher with decades of experience teaching doctors at various levels.”

    I have attended his sessions numerous times over the last 10 years in various hospitals. This includes AMC exams, APEM course, ED Primary exams and the FACEM Written/ OSCE exams. Never have I been disappointed. In my success through all these exams, Zaahid has played a great role. His logical explanation of clinical conundrums sticks to your brain. The slide shows are wonderful. The pace is great. For the amount of free teaching he has done in all those years, it shows how enthusiastic a teacher he is. Any candidate preparing for ED exams should take a look at his teaching. It will not disappoint. His courses are high yield and succinct. Highly recommended.

  • “The Advanced Centre for Emergency Education program is an intensive face-to-face revision program that helped me consolidate the core material required for the exam.”

    I particularly enjoyed the small group focus allowing detailed interrogation of knotty topics that needed consultant level clarification in the lead up to the exam. I highly recommend this course to ACEM fellowship exam candidates who are not just keen on getting through the exams, but also on high level exam content dissection. Beware of the intensity though, you’ll need bales of comfort food, a cask of caffeine and lots of adrenaline!

  • “An enjoyable and relevant review of all the main subjects for the ACEM fellowship exam.”

    The X-ray and ECG sessions were great. Getting 5 mins or so to do a question then going through it together as a group I found really useful, hearing other candidates interpretations. The small group approach was very supportive and everyone has a chance to contribute. I’d highly recommend Ace Ed to anyone studying for the ACEM fellowship exam!

  • “There is great focus on the high yield topics that will help you ace the ACEM!”

    Ace Ed is a great program. The team has vast knowledge in all things Emergency Medicine but also has experience in navigating the dreaded FACEM Fellowship exam. Attending these sessions were instrumental in helping me pass the fellowship exam.

  • “Highly recommended! If you have never been taught it, or too scared to ask it, this course will cover it!”

    The cardiology workshop on paced ECGs was a highlight. The strength as a teacher, is dissecting a topic until each and every person understands it and offers a comprehensive program tailored not just to the ACEM fellowship exam but into making you a better clinician. Unlike any other course I’ve attended, FACEM level content was built around clinical context using case vignettes. This course forces you to focus on your weaknesses so that you can build on your strengths.
