IDKD COURSE
IDKD Course, 2026 “Musculoskeletal Diseases”
The IDKD on Musculoskeletal Diseases will be offered onsite and on demand in recording (not in real time) for 6 months from the course’s end date. All IDKD Lectures and one Teacher per Workshop topic will be recorded.
All Pre-Courses on March 21, 2026 will be offered in a face-to-face (onsite) format and will not be recorded.
Join Us Onsite in Davos – The Original IDKD Experience
The in-person course in Davos offers the true spirit, intensity, and interactive exchange that define IDKD. Attending onsite remains the central and strongly recommended way to experience the full value of our unique workshop format, including direct interaction with teachers, hands-on learning, and the vibrant atmosphere that makes IDKD special.
For participants who cannot make it to Davos, we offer an On-Demand option – a flexible solution providing access to high-quality recorded course content. Please note that On-Demand access is intended as an alternative when travel is not possible and cannot replace the interactive nature of the onsite workshops.
IDKD Davos 2026 On-Demand Format
For 2026, the IDKD Davos format is changing: There will be no live stream during the course. Participants who choose the IDKD Regular On-Demand Ticket will receive access to high-quality recordings of all IDKD lectures, as well as one teacher per workshop topic.
Availability:
The On-Demand recordings will be available starting Friday, 27 March 2026 and can be accessed for 6 months.
Key Benefits of the On-Demand Format:
-
Watch anytime, anywhere: Full flexibility, with unlimited access for 6 months.
-
High-quality recordings: All sessions are professionally filmed in a studio for excellent audio and video quality.
-
CME accredited: Earn CME credits at your own pace after completing the required evaluations.
-
Comprehensive content: Includes all key lecture content (please note: the live interactive workshop atmosphere is not part of the recordings).
