The programme was designed and approved by a dedicated fetal cardiology team. The one\u2010day intervention involved supervised hands\u2010on sonography and a prescribed educational programme for sonographers and doctors. The programme was completed by 23 trainees. Evaluation of the programme involved pre and post\u2010training questionnaires and retrospective evaluation of cardiac images from 10 randomly\u2010selected anatomy screening examinations performed by each trainee before and after training. Images were assessed for both technical quality and 6 priority elements of cardiac screening taught in the programme. The results were described with summary statistics and non\u2010parametric tests.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      1850 fetal cardiac images obtained before and after training by 21\/23 trainees were assessed.
