The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine (F.I.C.M.) is a 12-month, internationally accredited online critical-care fellowship from Virtued Academy International, awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London, UK. It strengthens clinical expertise in intensive care, emergency stabilisation, ventilatory support, haemodynamic and renal support, sepsis, shock, trauma, organ support and multidisciplinary ICU management — so eligible doctors can approach critically ill patients with a structured, evidence-based framework.
It carries 120 Global CPD points, includes lifetime access, and lets you use the F.I.C.M. suffix after your name on successful completion.
Intensive care medicine (also called critical care medicine) is the branch of medicine concerned with caring for critically ill patients — those with life-threatening conditions requiring close monitoring and organ support, usually in an intensive care unit (ICU). An intensivist assesses and stabilises critically ill patients and manages ventilation, haemodynamics, sepsis, shock, trauma and multi-organ support within a multidisciplinary team.
The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine builds structured, evidence-based knowledge across this full spectrum for eligible doctors.
The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine is awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London, UK, and delivered by Virtued Academy International, an autonomous organisation registered under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India. It is internationally accredited by IAOTH, UK and IRAP, and every certificate carries a QR code and serial number for independent verification.
Yes — the ability to assess, stabilise and manage critically ill patients is one of the most valued and in-demand clinical skills, needed across ICUs, emergency departments, trauma facilities and high-dependency units. A doctor who can integrate monitoring, ventilation, haemodynamics and organ support confidently is a strong asset to any hospital team.
The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine gives eligible working doctors this structured knowledge and a recognised credential without leaving practice.
The most accessible route to structured critical-care knowledge after MBBS — without a scarce DM/DrNB Critical Care super-specialty seat — is a comprehensive intensive-care fellowship. The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine (F.I.C.M.) gives you 12 months of structured learning across ICU physiology, monitoring, ventilation, haemodynamic and renal support, sepsis, shock, trauma and emergency stabilisation.
It is a knowledge-based professional-development fellowship, not a DM/DrNB degree or IDCCM, so it complements rather than replaces supervised ICU training and does not by itself confer specialist registration — but it is a practical way to build strong critical-care understanding.
For doctors working in or moving toward ICU, emergency and high-dependency settings, an intensive-care fellowship after MBBS is worth it: it builds a structured framework for stabilising and managing critically ill patients, integrating ventilation, haemodynamics, sepsis and organ-support decisions, and strengthens your profile for ICU-facing roles.
Actual roles and income depend on your setting and network, and Virtued Academy International does not guarantee any specific outcome. What the fellowship reliably provides is structured knowledge and a verifiable, internationally accredited credential.
The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine (F.I.C.M.) is for MBBS doctors and above — the published eligibility is MBBS, MD, DM, MS, MCh or DNB, including international MBBS-equivalent graduates, subject to internal eligibility verification. Final-year MBBS students and interns can also enrol and begin immediately.
AYUSH doctors should take the Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine (Integrated Medicine); allied-health professionals such as ICU nurses are welcome in the open-to-all Certificate in Intensive Care Medicine.
Yes. Interns and final-year MBBS students can enrol and start learning right away, studying alongside their duties thanks to the fully online, self-paced format. At certificate issuance, interns submit a temporary registration/licence and graduates their permanent licence, along with the MBBS degree documents.
Yes. Foreign medical graduates can enrol in the Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine even before clearing the FMGE, and all lectures, quizzes and certification are unaffected. Any optional in-hospital observership in India requires FMGE clearance; if you hold a valid licence abroad, an observership can be explored where available.
The standard Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine (F.I.C.M.) is reserved for MBBS and post-MBBS doctors. If you are an AYUSH doctor (BAMS, BHMS, BUMS, Siddha), the right route is the Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine (Integrated Medicine), which offers the same 12-month depth and 120 CPD points, framed for your scope of practice.
ICU nurses and other allied-health professionals are welcome in the open-to-all Certificate in Intensive Care Medicine.
The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine is among the most valuable courses to do after MBBS for doctors drawn to acute and emergency care, because critical-care skills are in high demand across hospitals. As a 12-month online fellowship with 120 CPD points, it lets you build genuine ICU expertise without leaving practice.
The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine curriculum spans the field through structured modules and case-based learning: intensive-care physiology; clinical and haemodynamic monitoring; ventilatory support; renal support; sepsis; shock; trauma; emergency stabilisation; organ support; ethical decision-making in the ICU; multidisciplinary intensive-care practice; and evidence-based critical-care protocols.
It is delivered through pre-recorded lessons, supporting PDFs, quizzes and case-based learning, with the live module list and durations kept current inside the learning platform.
You will build structured knowledge of intensive-care physiology and monitoring, mechanical ventilation, haemodynamic and renal support, sepsis and septic shock, all forms of shock, trauma and emergency stabilisation, multi-organ support, and ethical and multidisciplinary ICU care — with clear, protocol-based frameworks.
Yes — ventilatory support, sepsis management and organ support are central pillars of the Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine. You learn to integrate ventilator strategies, haemodynamic and renal-support decisions and evidence-based sepsis and shock protocols within a structured ICU framework, reinforced by a Critical Care Learning Toolkit.
The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine has a duration of 12 months (1 year), structured as a guided pathway with roughly up to two hours of study per week. Because you get lifetime access, the 12 months is a minimum guide rather than a hard deadline — you can finish faster or take longer at your own pace, and Virtued does not charge any extension fees.
Yes — it is a fully online intensive-care course with pre-recorded video lectures, downloadable notes and self-assessment quizzes, built for working doctors: roughly up to two hours of study per week, at your own pace, with no fixed timings and lifetime access.
The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine is delivered fully online with pre-recorded lessons, PDFs, quizzes, case-based learning and mentorship. Where an optional in-hospital observership is offered, it is available for eligible post-MBBS fellowship students; the academic team can advise, and Virtued can provide a recommendation letter where applicable at no additional cost.
The fellowship includes a Critical Care Learning Toolkit covering critical-care physiology and monitoring references, ventilation and patient-safety support, structured stabilisation and escalation protocols and additional self-study materials, alongside case-based learning and mentorship from experienced intensive-care experts.
Intensive care medicine and critical care medicine describe the same clinical field — the care of critically ill patients, usually in the ICU. Virtued Academy International offers a fellowship under each name, covering closely related ground; the main difference is the credential title and suffix. The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine awards the F.I.C.M. suffix, while the Fellowship in Critical Care Medicine awards the F.C.C.M. suffix.
Choose whichever title best fits how you wish to present your credential; both are 12-month, 120-CPD fellowships focused on ICU and critical-care practice. If you are unsure, an academic counsellor can help you decide.
Formal qualifications such as the IDCCM or a university diploma in critical care are institution-based programmes, often requiring in-person training, whereas the Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine from Virtued Academy International is a structured, case-based online programme built around practical ICU knowledge, delivered fully online with lifetime access, so you can upskill alongside your existing practice.
Most doctors searching for a critical-care qualification want practice-ready ICU knowledge, which is what this fellowship delivers, with 120 CPD points and an internationally accredited, verifiable credential; it is a professional-development fellowship rather than a statutory postgraduate qualification.
Virtued Academy International offers two tiers rather than a separate ‘diploma’: the 3-month Certificate in Intensive Care Medicine (30 CPD) for a foundational overview — open to all healthcare professionals — and the 12-month Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine (120 CPD) for comprehensive training. Most doctors wanting diploma-level depth are best served by the Fellowship.
A DM or DrNB in Critical Care Medicine is a full super-specialty qualification obtained through NEET-SS, with extremely limited seats and years of supervised residency, and it confers specialist registration. The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine (F.I.C.M.) is a 12-month knowledge-based professional-development fellowship; it is not a substitute for a DM/DrNB or IDCCM, does not confer specialist registration, and does not replace supervised ICU training.
Doctors typically choose the fellowship for structured, flexible critical-care knowledge without waiting for a scarce super-specialty seat.
Choose the Certificate in Intensive Care Medicine (C.I.C.M, 30 CPD, 3 months) for an accessible foundation open to every healthcare professional. Choose the Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine (F.I.C.M., 120 CPD, 12 months) if you are an MBBS or post-MBBS doctor who wants comprehensive ICU training. Many learners start with the certificate and progress to the fellowship.
Both fellowships share the same 12-month structure and 120 CPD points, but they are matched to different audiences: the Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine (F.I.C.M.) is for MBBS and post-MBBS doctors, while the Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine (Integrated Medicine) is for AYUSH doctors, framed for their scope of practice. The fee is the same; the framing and suffix differ.
The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine carries 120 Global CPD points (CPD hours / CME credits), accredited through Virtued Eduversity, London, UK, and recognised via IAOTH, UK and IRAP. Virtued's 12-month fellowships carry 120 CPD points and its 3-month certificates carry 30 CPD points.
On successful completion you receive an IAOTH, UK-accredited Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine certificate awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London and delivered by Virtued Academy International, and you may use the F.I.C.M. suffix after your name as per Virtued Eduversity’s guidelines.
The Code of Medical Ethics Regulations, 2002 (Ref 1.4.2) guides that physicians display as a suffix only recognised medical degrees or certificates/diplomas and memberships/honours that confer professional knowledge or recognise an exemplary qualification or achievement.
The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine is a continuing-professional-development credential awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London and delivered by Virtued Academy International (registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India). Virtued's online/blended programmes operate independently of NMC approval requirements and are offered transparently as professional development, with international accreditation from IAOTH, UK and IRAP.
It is not an NMC-recognised medical degree or postgraduate qualification, and it should not be treated as a substitute for medical licensure, specialist registration, a DM/DrNB super-specialty or the clinical privileges required by your employer or regulator. On its own it does not grant a licence to practise as a specialist intensivist. Apply the learning within your existing scope of practice and confirm requirements with the relevant councils or medical boards in your region.
This CPD programme is an independent professional development initiative, conducted outside UGC, AICTE, NMC, NCAHP, Ofqual, OfS, QAA frameworks, acknowledging their jurisdictions, without implying a practising licence, qualification to practise, statutory recognition, licensure eligibility, or equivalence to qualifications governed by regulatory bodies.
