Throughout the Pain Management Training Program, various assessment techniques will be employed to evaluate participants' understanding and proficiency:
Pre-Test: Evaluates baseline knowledge before training.
Continuous Assessment: Includes online quizzes and short exercises; participation in theoretical and practical sessions.
Case Studies: Practical application of real-world scenarios.
Self-Paced Learning: Additional practice through LMS-based tests.
Post-Test: Comprehensive final evaluation to measure learning outcomes.
To qualify for a certificate of competence, candidates must achieve a minimum passing score of 80% on the post-test administered at the end of the training.
This course is designed for healthcare professionals and other individuals interested in pain management.
To obtain CPD or CME Credit, complete the post-tests with an 80% pass rate. Complete the evaluation survey online and submit. A certificate will be mailed within a week of course completion date to the email address provided at the time of registration.
