Most workshops will leave you with some valuable skills and insight. Plus you meet like minded people from all over the world!
To that effect, I highly recommend the APELSO Hong Kong ECMO course. Run by staff from Queen Mary/Grantham hospitals, it was exemplary in demystifying and deciphering everything extra-corporeal. Just like the excellent Reanimate, this course combines didactics, simulation and practical exercises but lasted for 5 days rather than 2. Here's some pics taken with permission.

 |
| They even brought in fluroscopy in the sims |
 |
| Transportation sim for interhospital transfers on circuit |
 |
| Live action mannequin for the sims - can't get more fidelity than that |
