About EEG Online
The Neurological Association of South Africa (NASA), in collaboration with the University of Cape Town, is developing online distance learning programs in the clinical neurosciences. These are expected to be especially useful in the context of resource-poor settings where conventional training may be challenging. EEGonline is the first result of this initiative and was made possible by a seed grant secured from the World Federation of Neurology (WFN). The EEGonline Distance Learning Program is primarily designed to assist in the training of career neurology registrars in the principles and practice of clinical electroencephalography.
EEG Online Programme
EEG remains an important component of neurological practice as it is a readily available test of brain function. In skilled hands, it may of great value, but misuse and poor interpretation may lead to an incorrect diagnosis and serious harm.
The purpose of the EEGonline Distance Learning Program is to assist trainees in clinical EEG by providing a supervised, interactive, learning experience. It is a part-time course, which runs for 6 months, and consists of 9 modules, each lasting about 3 weeks. The first 5 modules cover the basic principles of EEG, and the final 4 modules deal with its clinical application.
Each module consists of multimodal sections. Concise, informative text is provided, but the emphasis of the teaching is on the interpretation of many normal and abnormal EEG epochs which are presented in the course material. Interactive waveform software is utilised to demonstrate a systematic process of identifying and interpreting background rhythms, artefacts and both normal and abnormal waveforms of interest. There are online forums where participants discuss waveforms of interest with each other and with their tutors. Purpose-made videos demonstrate experienced tutors interpreting instructive EEGs and, at the end of each module, there are self-assessment quizzes with immediate feedback.
Links to useful resources on the Web are included and, to facilitate additional reading around the subject, references are provided
End-of-course examinations are offered, and successful participants will receive a certificate confirming successful completion of the EEGonline program.

Programme Overview
1: Part 1 principles of Electroencephalography
5 modules
12 weeks
Part–time
Approximately 4-6 hours per week depending on baseline knowlege
Requirements: undergraduate medical or technologist’s degree
Preference will be given to neurology registrars in training & qualified specialist neurologists
By the end of EEGonline Course 1, you should have a sound understanding of the physiological processes which underlie the generation of electrical potentials within the brain, and how these are transmitted to the surface of the scalp. You will also develop an appreciation of how brain-derived electrical potentials are acquired through scalp electrodes, amplified and filtered by the EEG machine, and displayed on a screen. The principles involved in standard scalp-electrode placement according the 10-20 system will be explained, as will the principles, advantages and disadvantages of using bipolar vs. referential montages. In addition, the principles of basic electricity and electrical safety in the laboratory will be covered. Numerous instructive epochs will be presented to illustrate the wide range of normal electroencephalographic rhythms and other waveforms commonly seen in wakeful and somnolent adult subjects, as well as abnormal epileptiform and non-epileptiform patterns. Thus, when you complete EEGonline Course 1, you should have a firm platform on which to build your further EEG training, being able to identify and interpret most backgrounds and waveforms of interest.
Part 2: Application of Encephalography in Clinical Practice
4 modules
12 weeks
Part–time
Approximately 4-6 hours per week
Requirements: an undergraduate medical degree and completion of Course 1
Preference will be given to neurology registrars in training & qualified specialist neurologists
The aim of EEGonline Course 2 is for participants to revisit the principles acquired during Course 1, and learn how to start applying these appropriately in clinical practice. You will explore the benefits and limitations of using electroencephalography in the context of epilepsy, including the more common epilepsy syndromes, focal epilepsy, and status epilepticus and in the investigation for epilepsy surgery. Similarly, you will consider the benefits and limitations of using EEG in coma and encephalopathy, as well as its controversial use in brain stem death. The respective benefits and disadvantages of various bipolar and referential montages will be covered in relation to specific waveforms of interest. As in Course 1, numerous EEG epochs will be presented, but now together with clinical and imaging information so that the electroencephalographic information can be considered in context. Amongst other practical aspects, this course will deal with the potential pitfalls involved when reading EEGs, as well as the issue of how best to prepare an EEG report. By the time you have completed EEGonline Course 2, you should have a sound basic understanding of the use and limitations of the EEG in clinical practice. Of course, full competence in EEG interpretation cannot be obtained from courses or texts alone, but only from reading many records, and learning from the experience and advice of skilled practitioners. Nevertheless, with the material in these EEGonline courses, you should have a firm foundation on which to build your own future experience.
