On-Line Continuing Education Program

                      

 

Overview:

Our web-based continuing education programs feature a modular design that deliver training in a three-step process. First, the learner reads a comprehensive article. Since the module begins with reading material, we are targeting the visual learner from the onset. Second, the participant views a narrated slideshow that is completely interactive with user control over the pace of the lesson. Accompanying each of the slides is a note section that can be accessed to view the text while listening to the presenter. Each slide can be rewound to review information or to capture a key point that was missed. Along the course of the instruction the learner will be posed several questions to ensure that the course objectives are being delivered. The narrated slideshow targets all three learning styles - visual, auditory and kinesthetic. The third part of the modular training involves completing a scenario that is based on the first two parts of the module. In the last part of the module the participant applies what has been taught.

Once the module is completed, a post-test must be passed to demonstrate competency. Each test is multiple choice with an average of 15-20 questions per exam.

Credible:

 

Each module is written by both a paramedic and physician to ensure up-to-date and accurate information delivered at an understandable level.

 

Unique:

 

No other program to date offers a slideshow that is completely narrated with an interactive scenario for application of knowledge. This format is designed for the three predominant learning styles - auditory, visual and kinesthetic.

 

Ease of Use:

 

The training is completely autonomous allowing the user to learn at a pace that is appropriate. Each slide can be rewound, paused or fast forwarded to accommodate the user.
