Postgraduate Diploma in Clinical Cardiology
(PGDCC) is a two-year full-time residency program in Clinical Cardiology for post-MBBS doctors offered by Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
This PGDCC diploma is not a distance education or online program. It is the first face-to-face clinical residency program in Clinical Cardiology offered by IGNOU.
The PGDCC qualification provides training in Clinical Cardiology , similar to that provided at the super-specialty level of cardiology. The only difference is the absence of training in interventional cardiology.
