An online, case-based review of common paediatric presentations in Australian practice. Recorded teaching and supporting notes cover structured assessment, growth and development, childhood infections, respiratory and gastrointestinal presentations, skin conditions, neurological presentations, serious-illness red flags and child-safety concerns. The course develops clinical reasoning, communication with children and caregivers, investigation and referral planning, and safety-netting.

Format: Online, self-paced recorded teaching with supporting written material: 70 lessons in 15 chapters (66 unique videos, about 22 hours 15 minutes of video).

Target audience: International medical graduates preparing for the AMC Clinical Examination, and doctors reviewing common paediatric presentations in Australian practice.

Content overlap: Two neonatal jaundice lessons share the same notes. Five videos (about 1 hour 53 minutes) also appear in LearnMedicine's PESCI Review course; learners completing both courses should count that content once.
