The purpose of this compendium is to provide a curriculum of core competencies in lung transplantation. The ISHLT Academy provides a concise synopsis of clinical knowledge and associated essential professional skills to facilitate the mastery of all surgical and medical aspects involved in the care of patients receiving lung transplantation.

The core curriculum should also serve programs providing lung transplantation with a tool to review their standards of care, develop protocols and implement guidelines established in lung transplantation.
