You may already know our work

We've been teaching through our podcast Critical Care Scenarios since 2019, reaching hundreds of thousands of learners. The Academy is how we took it to the next level with a comprehensive video curriculum.

Most critical care CME is pretty bad.

Conference sessions, journal articles, textbooks… they’re boring, low-yield, or both.

How can adult clinicians keep learning?

It’s a sad truth that many skilled practitioners aren’t good educators, and most talented educators aren’t practicing critical care.

Older methods of education struggle to engage us nowadays, and are outdated as soon as they’re available. But teaching with “modern” platforms isn’t easy, and traditional sources struggle to use them well. (Have you ever listened to a podcast by a College-of-such-and-such?)

That’s where we come in

We’ve spent the past 15 years teaching medicine online using blogs, videos, social media, and our popular podcast Critical Care Scenarios (now with >300 episodes and hundreds of thousands of downloads).

With that experience, we built the Intensive Care Academy. Inside, you’ll find:

Self-directed video lessons

A growing library of >50 hours of studio-quality HD videos, teaching everything from sepsis to central lines.

Podcast feeds

Three subscriber-only podcast feeds, with additional content and options to view or listen to lessons on-the-go.

30+ CME credits

Over 30 hours of continuing medical education credits, redeemed with one click.

Live Q & A sessions

Live Q & A sessions with the instructors.

Lesson materials

Lesson notes, outlines, and references.

Built for all ICUs

MICU, SICU, neuro, CCU, CTICU and beyond.

What members say

  • “As a critical care NP with over 15 years of experience, I really appreciate the Intensive Care Academy.  The videos are engaging, practical, and easy to follow, and the instructors make complex critical care concepts approachable. I also love that Brandon and Bryan are continually adding new content and addressing multiple different critical care specialties. Whether you are building your foundation or looking to reinforce and expand your existing critical care experience, Intensive Care Academy is a valuable educational resource.”

The information provided is evidence-based and also real-world-scenario based. The lectures are practical and to the point. 100% would recommend to anyone working in an ICU! ”

Frequently asked questions

  • Our credits are AMA PRA Category 1, accepted for most physicians, PAs, NPs, nurses, and other roles. You can easily redeem your full annual credit all at once (no need to amass two dozen individual certificates).

  • That's exactly who we built it for. The curriculum starts with core principles and builds from there, so no prior critical care training is assumed.

  • There's no schedule. The library is 50+ hours and entirely self-paced.

  • Subscriptions run for 6 months, but you’re welcome to cancel within 14 days for a full refund.

  • Yes. Both video and podcast feeds both work on mobile devices, so you can watch or listen anywhere.

If you take care of sick patients and need something more, there's no better way to expand your training.
