Before the learning takes off, we encourage you to complete a short pre-course survey. This would help us to get to know you and your expectations for the course. The course will then be rolled out in the form of 5 modules with 4 sessions. Each session is followed by a comprehension quiz. The learner is allowed a maximum of 5 attempts to pass the session quiz and the final assessment. In the event of exhaustion of all attempts, kindly log in after 24 hours to resume the course. After successful completion of all 5 modules, you will be invited to take the final assessment and complete a feedback questionnaire. A certificate of course completion may then be downloaded.
