Content is competency-based meaning each course addresses specific competencies necessary for the student to master. Instruction is provided using a range of resources and much of the content is reviewed or taught by healthcare experts in their respective fields for specific courses. We always recommend implementing a continuing education and review routine for yourself to ensure knowledge retention, patient safety and clinical competence and confidence.
We recommend that health & wellness professionals entering this course have a minimum of 3-5 years of clinical experience (depending on type of experience and full-time vs part-time status).
