Feedback from participants on completed modules has been extremely positive:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>\u201cDistance learning has been a great experience for me. I am really enjoying and learning new things daily. I will recommend it to all colleagues here\u2026\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>\u201cI \u2026 eagerly wait to read the tutor\u2019s comments. The past 10 weeks have been lovely.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>\u201cI really enjoyed the experience and learned a lot. They would be definitely useful for the development of our institution\u2026\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Each module takes approximately one hour per week for 10 weeks. Modules can be downloaded or used on-line. Participants are provided with materials and supporting documentation, as well as access to an on-line discussion forum. A learning advisor is assigned to each participant to stimulate and discuss progress. Participants are expected to complete two one-hour assignments (within the 10-hour allocation) for which they will receive marked feedback. At the end of each completed module, participants will receive a certificate which can be used as evidence of Continuing Professional Development (CPD).<\/p>\n<p>Visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.faimer.org\/distancelearning.html\">The Open University-FAIMER-WFME Distance Learning Modules in Medical Education page<\/a> to register or to learn more.
