FAQ
1) I missed the live congress or some sessions. Will the talks be available after the congress?
Yes, all talks were recorded and will be made available to view on demand on our YouTube Channel and wherever you get podcasts – just search for ‘World Sepsis Congress’ in your favorite podcast app or click here for Apple Podcasts. All talks from our previous congresses – including the 2017, 2020, 2022, and 2024 WSC Spotlights – are available on these channels as well.
2) When will the sessions be released and in which order?
The sessions will be released weekly on Tuesdays, starting with the Opening Session on April 15, 2025. From then on, we will be releasing two new sessions each Tuesday. See the full release schedule here.
3) Will you let me know when new sessions are available?
If you registered for the congress, we will send you an email with the link to the newest sessions every Tuesday for the next couple of weeks. You can also subscribe to our YouTube Channel and enable the bell or subscribe to our podcast in your favorite podcast app to be automatically notified once new sessions are available.
4) Will there be a certificate of participation?
Yes, we will issue a certificate of participation to everyone who participated live. Detailed instructions on how to obtain yours will be shared in the session mailing on Tuesday, April 15. We are hard at work on the certificate and it will be available on April 22 at the latest.
5) Will there be CME credits?
Unfortunately, due to prohibitive costs, long lead times, and international jurisdictions, we will not be able to offer CME credits this time.
6) Do you plan to translate the congress to other languages?
Speakers presented in English. Subtitles will be available on the recordings on YouTube.
7) Who is behind the congress?
The 5th WSC was organized by the Global Sepsis Alliance, a non-profit charity organization with the mission to provide global leadership to reduce the worldwide burden of sepsis. The GSA is the initiator of World Sepsis Day on September 13 and World Sepsis Congress and WSC Spotlight, a series of free online congresses bringing knowledge about sepsis to all parts of the world, among other initiatives.
8) Why is WSC free? How is World Sepsis Congress funded?
World Sepsis Congress is free because its mission is to bring knowledge about sepsis to all parts of the world, easily accessible and, well, free of charge. WSC is funded with the help of our Sponsors, whom we sincerely thank for their support. Please note that sponsors do not influence the program, content, or the choice of speakers in any way.
